Milbank u5168-xtl-150-kk Meter Main 150 Amp

Product Description

The MILBANK u5168-xtl-150-kk is a meter main unit designed for residential electrical service entrance applications. A meter main combines the utility metering socket and the main service disconnect into a single enclosure, reducing the number of components required at the service entrance and streamlining installation. This type of device is installed by licensed electricians at the point where utility power enters a residential structure. Based on the part number designation, this unit is rated for 150-amp service, making it suited for standard single-family residential loads.

Meter mains in the U5168 series are typically used in single-family residential new construction and retrofit service entrance upgrades. The combined meter socket and disconnect configuration satisfies utility and inspection requirements in many jurisdictions by providing a readily accessible means of disconnect at the meter location. This unit is appropriate for installations governed by the National Electrical Code and applicable local utility standards.

Key Features

• Combined meter socket and main disconnect in a single enclosure reduces service entrance complexity
• 150-amp service rating supports standard residential electrical loads
• Single-enclosure design minimizes field wiring connections at the service entrance
• Intended for use with residential utility metering configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style meter main for residential service entrance installations. No specific compatible panel or meter socket models were provided in the product data. Verify utility acceptance and local inspection authority approval before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation of a meter main must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code and the requirements of the serving utility. De-energize the utility service before any work on the service entrance conductors, coordinating with the utility company as required since the line-side conductors may remain energized until the utility pulls the meter. Verify enclosure rating, conductor sizing, and grounding electrode connections per applicable NEC articles before energizing. Local inspection and utility approval are typically required prior to restoration of service.
