Milbank U3986-XL-100-LIS 100A Meter Socket

Product Description

The MILBANK U3986-XL-100-LIS is a 100-amp meter socket rated for both overhead and underground service entry, designed for LIPA (Long Island Power Authority) utility requirements. This unit provides the metering point between the utility service and the customer-side distribution equipment. It is built for residential and light commercial applications where the serving utility mandates compliance with LIPA specifications. Licensed electricians install this socket during new construction or service upgrades where overhead or underground conductors terminate at the meter enclosure.

This meter socket is intended for installations served by LIPA in jurisdictions where the utility enforces specific equipment approval requirements. Its overhead and underground (OH/UG) design accommodates both service entrance configurations, giving installers flexibility based on site conditions and utility connection points. It is suited for single-phase residential service entrance installations at 100-amp capacity.

Key Features

• 100-amp service rating for residential and light commercial applications
• Dual-rated for overhead and underground service entry configurations
• Built to LIPA utility specification requirements
• XL enclosure designation provides additional interior working space for conductor terminations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-specified meter socket meeting LIPA utility approval requirements for 100-amp single-phase service entrance installations.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local utility requirements. De-energize the service and coordinate with the serving utility before opening or working within the meter enclosure. Verify conductor sizing and termination torque requirements against the NEC and the utility interconnection agreement prior to energizing. The serving utility typically installs and removes the meter itself.
