CA 2285135

An electrical raceway assembly for use with a structure is provided, comprising an elongated raceway engageable to the structure and having a length, a transverse base and a pair of opposite upstanding sidewalk extending along the length to define at least one channel configured for retaining electrical wires. A cover attachable to the raceway to occlude a portion of the channel is included. The cover includes an elongated face plate having an interior surface and an exterior surface. The cover is configured for snap fit engagement with the raceway. One end of the cover is rotatable, about a longitudinal axis of the raceway, between an open position in which a portion of a channel of the raceway is exposed and a closed position in which the other end of the cover is engaged to the raceway. A flange extends from one of the portions of the cover. The flange is relatively more flexible other elements of the cover and occludes an area behind the flange when the cover is attached to the raceway and the flange being elastically deformable to allow access to the area. In one embodiment, a living hinge is defined in the cover between the face plate and the rotatable end of the cover. The living hinge is elastically deformable to permit pivoting of the face plate relative to the rotatable end of the cover, thereby permitting greater access behind the cover.
