Red Dot CKSUV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Red Dot CKSUV cover keep an outdoor outlet protected while a cord is plugged in?
Yes. The CKSUV is a while-in-use weatherproof cover, so the lid stays closed over a plugged-in cord rather than only sealing an idle receptacle. That is what makes it suitable for the loads Red Dot lists it for: holiday and landscape lighting, wells and sump pumps, sprinkler systems, plug-in timers, garages and patios.
2) Is the Red Dot CKSUV UL listed?
It carries UL file E28688. That is the listing reference a UL-listed while-in-use cover is supplied under, which is what an inspector will be looking for on an exterior receptacle cover.
3) Is the CKSUV metal or plastic? I need something that holds up on an exposed wall.
Die-cast aluminum, powder-coated, in a silver finish. Red Dot cites the die-cast metal construction for long-lasting durability, which is the reason to pick it over a polycarbonate cover on a wall that takes sun, impact, or ladder traffic.
4) What does the "universal" in the Red Dot CKSUV cover mean for the device underneath?
The CKSUV is a shallow depth universal cover, meaning one cover handles the common device configurations rather than being cut for a single receptacle style. If you are standardizing covers across a property, the universal cover keeps one part number on the shelf for duplex and decorator-style devices instead of stocking a separate cover per opening.
5) Why choose a shallow depth while-in-use cover instead of a deep one?
A shallow cover like the CKSUV projects less off the wall, which matters on patios, garage walls, and walkways where a deep bubble cover gets knocked or looks bulky. The trade-off is plug clearance: large wall-wart transformers and right-angle plugs need the extra interior room a deep cover gives. For cord-and-plug loads such as plug-in timers, sprinkler controls, and holiday lighting, which is what Red Dot lists this cover for, shallow is usually enough.
6) Is the Red Dot CKSUV sold individually or in a multi-pack?
Each. The CKSUV is sold as a single cover under manufacturer part number CKSUV, so a quantity of ten on a purchase order is ten covers.
