Large GFCI plugs (e.g., 20A pass-through) do not fit standard in-use weatherproof covers, leaving the outlet unprotected when plugged in.

Existing in-use covers are not designed to accommodate oversized GFCI plugs, so electricians have no way to maintain a weatherproof seal while using such plugs.
