Hello from Iowa,
We are in the process of designing a UL508A control panel and the spec calls for an outlet with an in-use cover. We need to maintain a type 3R rating (we could go up it to a 4 or 4x if this was our only choice). We've done this design before with the parts listed below and while everything is UL listed the nipple and sealing washer don't have a 3R listing so I don't think this would technically pass inspection. I can find all sorts of bulkhead receptacles that would work but none have an in-use cover. Any suggestions on an all in one package or a way to mate the receptacle box to the control panel that would still maintain my rating? Thanks for your help!
Eaton - TWRSGF20W (20a GFCI)
Hubell - WP26E (In use cover)
Raco - 5320-0 (Weatherproof single gang box)
Raco - 1202 (sealing washer)
Conduit Steel - 5529 (standard 1/2" close nipple)
