00:08Hubbell TAYMAC and Bell, the market leader in weatherproof device covers
00:11offers a full line of Metallic Extra Duty, Weatherproof In-Use Device Covers.
00:17The 2014 national electric code has requirements that affect what type of cover can
00:22be installed on outdoor receptacles.
00:24Basically all 15 and 20 amp receptacles in a potentially wet location require a weatherproof
00:30in-use cover that meets the extra duty rating.
00:34The metallic extra duty MX line includes our newly improved rain guard covers and our
00:38patented low profile line.
00:41The covers are all UL extra duty listed NEMA 3R compliant and include our patented
00:45multi device adapter system. The rain guard covers include the exclusive
00:49rain chamber with cord retention hooks and a full size padlock tank.
00:54In addition to the MX 3200, the rain guard line includes the MX 3300 for horizontal mounting
01:00and the MX 6200 for two gang applications and now available the Jumbo depth MX 7200 at five
01:07and an eight inch deep. It's the industry's deepest cover when a
01:10reduced profile is required, choose the innovative low profile MX line.
01:15These covers have a reduced profile and are expandable for weatherproof while in use
01:20protection, the low profile covers are full size pad,
01:23lockable in the collapsed and expanded positions.
01:32The MX 4280 is also available in white and bronze.
01:36The rest of the low profile line includes the MX 4380 for horizontal installation,
01:41the MX 7280 for two gang applications and the MX 5280 which expands from 2.5 to
01:484.5 inches for more capacity. I'm gonna show you how the MX line is installed
01:53by walking you through the install of this MX 3200 here on my storage shed.
01:57The covers come preconfigured for a GFCI sized opening.
02:00But if you're using on a different device like a round a toggle or a duplex,
02:05simply snap in one of the adapters included with the cover.
02:10Of course, before starting any electrical work. Make sure the power is off at the breaker.
02:16Covers include indentations to be drilled out for use in alternate box mounting.
02:21There are also device mount holes but will be box mounting using the electrical device screws,
02:26which is preferred because it's a faster, easier install start by backing the device
02:30screws out about half an inch. Installing on a rough surface,
02:34apply a one quarter inch bead of silicone calk between the gasket and wall surface align the
02:39patented key holes with the device screws and slide the cover into place.
02:46Tighten screws until snug being careful not to over tighten and that's it.
02:51The installation is complete and your cover is ready for continuous use.
02:55If you've chosen one of the low profile covers, simply lift up and pull out to move the cover
03:00into the in use position.
03:02The locking tab can be swiveled to accommodate locking in both the collapsed and expanded
03:07positions. If you don't already have a receptacle
03:13installed or if it's old and outdated, then look for one of our code guard combos that
03:17include the latest weather resistant, tamper resistant GFCI or receptacle.
03:21Full kits are also available with a weatherproof Bell box.
03:25So for any of your outdoor electrical needs, look to Hubbell TAYMAC and Bell for proven and
03:29innovative weatherproof solutions.
