| Title: |
Cover Assembly for Wall Mounted Electrical Device Enclosure |
| Abstract: |
A cover assembly for a wall mounted electrical device enclosure includes a
mounting bracket that can be attached to the enclosure and a cover plate
that is removeably installed onto the mounting bracket. The mounting
bracket includes a rigid latch tang and supports an opposed resilient
catch. The face plate includes opposed latch recesses. To install the face
plate, the resilient catch is engaged with one latch recess and then is
resiliently deformed to permit the latch tang to engage the opposed latch
recess. The face plate can be removed only by first moving it in the plane
of the wall to deform the resilient catch.
