Receptacle cover for hosedown location

[steve66]

Does anyone know of a receptacle cover (standard 120V GFCI duplex) that is suitable for a hosedown location. The ones I have seen are all called "weatherproof", & I'm not sure how well they will work in a wet location.

Try mounting the GFCI inside a Carlon NEMA 4X clear cover enclosure. Weatherproof covers are 3R, you need 4 or better. Or locate a GFCI inside the enclosure and install a standard waterproof receptacle wired to the load side of rthe GFCI on the surface.

Am I having deja vu? I think you have shown those to me before.
