A cover plate is a plate used to cover or enclose a chamber or receptacle. Equipment cover plates may be simply decorative, or may serve to protect inner componentry from damage or leakage. Similarly, a cover plate may serve as a safety feature to conceal moving parts or live electrical circuits.
A pilot light is a small gas flame, usually natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas, which serves as an ignition source for a more powerful gas burner. In a pilot assembly, there is thermocouple sitting in the pilot light's flame. The electricity that is created from the flame contacting the thermocouple wire runs to a small electromagnetic valve and holds it open. If the pilot light blows out, the thermocouple quickly cools off. It stops generating electricity and the valve closes.
