Pass & Seymour CA8GH Cast Weatherproof Duplex Receptacle Cover, Die-Cast Zinc, Gray

The Pass & Seymour CA8GH is a cast weatherproof cover engineered to protect a horizontal duplex receptacle from moisture and debris on outdoor and exposed installations. Built from heavy-duty die-cast zinc and finished in a baked-on electrostatic polyester powder paint, this single-gang, gray cover resists scratching and corrosion while keeping the receptacle usable in wet conditions. It is designed to comply with 2005 NEC Section 406.8(A) and 406.8(B)(2), making it a code-compliant choice for professional electrical installations where exposed receptacles require an in-use weatherproof cover.

Key Features

  • Durable Construction: Heavy-duty die-cast zinc body provides long-term strength and impact resistance for outdoor duplex receptacle applications.
  • Weather-Resistant Finish: Baked-on electrostatic polyester powder paint delivers superior scratch and corrosion resistance in a matte gray finish.
  • Reliable Spring Action: Stainless steel springs ensure the cover doors close securely and hold up to repeated use over time.
  • Horizontal Duplex Configuration: Sized for horizontal duplex receptacle mounting within a single-gang footprint.
  • Code-Ready Design: Cover configuration complies with 2005 NEC Section 406.8(A) and 406.8(B)(2) requirements for weatherproof, in-use receptacle covers.

Pass & Seymour CA8-GH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pass & Seymour CA8GH fit a duplex receptacle mounted sideways in a single-gang box?
That is exactly what it is built for. The CA8GH is configured for a horizontal duplex receptacle in a single-gang footprint, so the two outlets sit side by side rather than stacked. If your device is mounted vertically (outlets one above the other), this is the wrong cover configuration and you want a vertical duplex cover instead, such as the Bell Outdoor Comforts 1-gang vertical decorator weatherproof cover.
2) Does the CA8GH weatherproof cover meet NEC requirements for an outdoor receptacle?
The cover is built to comply with 2005 NEC Section 406.8(A) and 406.8(B)(2), which cover weatherproof protection for receptacles in damp and wet locations, including the in-use requirement for exposed outdoor receptacles. Those are the only code sections stated for it.
3) What is the closest alternative to the Pass & Seymour CA8GH if I need a metal in-use weatherproof cover in gray?
The TayMac MX4380S is the nearest metal counterpart. Both are 1-gang gray weatherproof covers, but the CA8GH body is die-cast zinc while the MX4380S is aluminum from TayMac's Extra Duty Series. The CA8GH is configured for a horizontal duplex receptacle, so confirm your device orientation before swapping.
4) Is there a non-metallic version of a 1-gang weatherproof receptacle cover instead of the cast zinc CA8GH?
Yes. The Leviton 7420-YL and Leviton 7788-CR are both 1-gang self-closing weatherproof covers made from glass-filled thermoplastic and rated industrial grade, where the Pass & Seymour CA8GH uses a die-cast zinc body with a powder-coated matte gray finish. Thermoplastic avoids metal corrosion concerns; the cast zinc gives you impact resistance in exposed, high-traffic locations.
5) Is a metal weatherproof receptacle cover better than a plastic one for an exposed outdoor outlet?
They solve the same problem differently. The CA8GH is die-cast zinc with a baked-on electrostatic polyester powder paint and stainless steel springs, so it takes impact and resists corrosion where a cover is likely to get hit, such as a loading dock, garage exterior, or exposed building wall. Glass-filled thermoplastic covers like the Leviton 7420 and 7788-CR, both industrial grade, are non-conductive and won't corrode at all, which some specs prefer. For a cast metal in-use cover from another brand, TayMac's MX4380S Extra Duty Series is aluminum.
6) What is the exact part number for the Pass & Seymour gray cast duplex weatherproof cover?
Pass & Seymour CA8GH, manufacturer part number CA8-GH. It is the die-cast zinc, gray, horizontal duplex single-gang weatherproof cover. Country of origin is India.
7) I need weatherproof covers in bulk for a multi-family turn. Does the CA8GH come in a case pack?
The CA8GH is ordered as the individual gray die-cast zinc duplex cover. If you need case quantities for a large job, Mulberry sells its BAC1SV 1-gang single receptacle weatherproof cover in packs of 100, and the Mulberry 11525 CV72R3330R 5-inch square 30A weatherproof cover also comes 100 to a pack. Note that the Mulberry BAC1SV is a single receptacle cover, not a duplex, so it is not a drop-in substitute for the CA8GH.
8) Will the CA8GH fit a 30A single outlet on a 5-inch square box?
No. The Pass & Seymour CA8GH is a single-gang cover sized for a horizontal duplex receptacle. For a 5-inch square box with a 30A device, the Mulberry 11525 (CV72R3330R) is the right part, a 5-inch square weatherproof cover rated 30A. The two are not interchangeable because the box footprint and device opening differ.
9) For a decorator-style GFCI outdoor device, should I order the CA8GH or something else?
The Pass & Seymour CA8GH is built around a horizontal duplex receptacle opening. If the device is a decorator-style (rectangular) face, the Bell Outdoor Comforts 1-gang vertical decorator weatherproof cover is the matching opening. Match the cover to the device face first, then the body material.
10) What color and finish is the CA8GH cover, and will it match other gray covers on a building?
Gray with a matte finish, from a baked-on electrostatic polyester powder paint rather than a surface spray, so it holds color and resists scratching outdoors. If you're standardizing gray across a facility, the TayMac MX4380S Extra Duty cover is also gray, though it is aluminum rather than zinc.
