Patent ID: 7855339

Claim:
An electrical junction box cover system capable of being safely used in a wet environment without submersion under water, comprising: a. a covering lid having a looped side wall with first and second ends and a cover portion at the first end of the looped side wall; said looped side wall and said cover portion forming a dome-like enclosure with an opening at the second end of the looped side wall; b. means to mount the second end of the looped side wall to a base plate in a fixed, hermetically sealed and removable manner; said second end comprising a coupling flange with a plurality of mounting apertures; c. said covering lid being made of a waterproof material, wherein water reaching the covering lid is prevented from reaching electrical circuitry inside the enclosure through the covering lid; d. a remote control receiver mounted inside the covering lid; e. an electronic control module for controlling an electrical on-off power switch for an external load circuit, said electronic control module being mounted inside the covering lid and being responsive to the remote control receiver; and f. a manual power switch having a manually accessible switch actuator located on the outside of the covering lid; said switch actuator having first, second and third actuator positions; the first actuator position corresponding to closing a circuit to supply power to the external load circuit; the second actuator position corresponding to opening a circuit to cut off power to the external load circuit; and the third actuator position enabling the electrical on-off power switch to remotely operate the external load circuit.
