Eaton MBE2040PV200BTS Solar Meter Breaker 200A

Product Description

The EATON CORPORATION MBE2040PV200BTS is a Type BR Solar Power Center Meter Breaker designed to combine utility power and solar photovoltaic (PV) power into a single enclosure. Rated at 200 amperes with a 225-amp copper bus, it features a galvanized steel enclosure and an interrupting rating of 22 kAIC. Factory-installed permanent markings are built in to support National Electrical Code (NEC) compliance, providing clear identification of product ratings and the location of the parallel energy source disconnect. Licensed electricians working on residential or light commercial solar interconnect installations will find this unit engineered for that specific application.

This meter breaker is suited for single-phase residential and light commercial solar PV grid-tied installations where utility and solar power sources must be combined at the service entrance. It supports both overhead and underground service entry configurations, making it adaptable to a wide range of site conditions. The surface-mounting design simplifies installation on exterior walls or meter pedestals. It ships as a single unit and is intended for use where a combined metering and disconnect solution is required at the PV interconnection point.

Key Features

• Combines utility and solar PV power in one enclosure, reducing the need for separate metering and disconnect hardware
• Factory-installed permanent markings support NEC compliance and clearly identify parallel energy source disconnect location
• 200-amp service rating with 225-amp copper bus for full-capacity solar interconnect installations
• 22 kAIC interrupting rating for reliable fault protection
• Galvanized steel enclosure for durable outdoor service entrance use
• Supports both overhead and underground service entry configurations
• Surface-mount design for straightforward exterior installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solar power center meter breaker for single-phase residential and light commercial grid-tied solar PV service entrance applications requiring Type BR configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes governing solar PV interconnection and service entrance equipment. Utility power must be shut off at the utility meter and the solar PV source must be de-energized before beginning installation. Verify that the service entry type, overhead or underground, matches the planned conduit routing before mounting. Always confirm that the parallel energy source disconnect markings are visible and unobstructed after installation is complete.
