Midwest Electric r281cb1 200A Metered Ringless Panel

Product Description

The Midwest Electric Products r281cb1 is a 200-amp, single-phase, metered ringless surface-mount power outlet panel designed for service entrance applications. Built from G90 galvanized steel with a zinc-coated finish, this unit carries a NEMA 3R outdoor enclosure rating and UL approval. It operates at 120/240 volts and is factory assembled and wired to reduce installation time on the job. The cabinet measures 14-3/8 inches wide, 4-3/4 inches deep, and 28-5/8 inches tall. Licensed electricians install this type of equipment wherever utility power enters a building or structure as required by the National Electric Code.

The r281cb1 is suited for single-family residential and mobile home service entrance installations requiring surface mounting. It accepts a wide range of wire sizes across its connection points: 6 to 350 KCMIL stranded copper or aluminum at the line meter socket, 1 to 4 AWG stranded copper or aluminum at the load base lug and neutral A position, 6 to 2/0 AWG stranded copper or aluminum at neutral/ground B, and 14 to 8 AWG solid or 14 to 4 AWG stranded copper at neutral/ground C positions. The first position circuit breaker type is the CB4200H. This flexibility accommodates varying service configurations common in residential service entrance work.
