A customer just bought a plug-in portable hot tub, and the plug is so large that it wouldn't fit into the outlet with the existing in-use cover, so they had to remove the cover in order to plug the spa in. Are there any larger covers available that I could install that will accommodate this plug? See pic:

If the duplex receptacle were vertical and the plug in the top receptacle then maybe you might find something that will work. Horizontal as shown with that plug I'm guessing no way.
 
Horrible idea, but I temporarily used an extreme heavy duty 2 foot extension cord.
Allowed the "in use" cover to close.
Good, but...yup ... I know... but...
Was searching for the same solution....
