Hi Folks,
I recently had a wall connector installed in my garage. However, my garage is a bit of a ways from my house, so I occasionally leave the car out in the driveway. I have a NEMA 14-50 in my basement near a window, so I've put together a window cover that allows me to pass the UMC cord through to the outside while keeping the unit itself inside. This gives me a spot to plug the car in while it's in the driveway next to the house for day use. However, there's no easy way to place the "wand" connector end of the UMC indoors when it is not in use. As I live in a somewhat nasty climate, I am concerned about leaving the connector exposed to the elements when the car is in the garage or I am using it. I've been putting the connector into a SockIt box to keep it dry, but that's not very convenient to do every time, so I was wondering is anyone has come across any outdoor covers or enclosures for the connector end of the UMC. I would prefer to avoid installing a larger electric box type cabinet if possible.
Thanks!
