Cover assembly for an electrical box

摘要

A cover assembly for an electrical box including a frame having an opening positionable over the electrical box and a cover selectively positionable over the opening and rotatable between a closed position and an open position. A hinge rotatably secures the cover to the frame and permits rotational and translational movement of the cover relative to the frame. The hinge includes a biasing device for urging the cover toward a first translational direction. A latch including a locking element is disposed between the cover and the frame for retaining the cover in the closed position. The biasing device deflects upon movement of the cover into the closed position and urges the locking element into a retaining position such that the locking element restricts movement of the cover to the open position.
