The 2-7/8 inch depth of the 2CKPM accommodates a variety of electrical components, including receptacles and switches, ensuring compatibility with standard gang boxes. The universal design simplifies installation and offers flexibility for different device configurations. This cover is an ideal complement to ABB's range of weatherproof boxes, such as the 2IH7S2-1 Two Gang Universal Weatherproof Box, which offers 31 cubic inches of capacity and multiple outlet configurations. While specific receptacle or switch compatibility details are not provided for the 2CKPM cover itself, similar non-metallic covers like the WPCV2-GFISWG (Combination toggle / GFCI) and WPCV2-DUP-G (Double duplex receptacle) from ABB's catalog indicate the types of devices these covers are designed to protect.

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Drill, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Wasp guards, Adapters, Sealant

  1. Turn off power

    Ensure that the electrical power is turned off to prevent any electrical hazards during installation.
