Milbank U5974-XT-5T9 Ringless Meter Main 200A 4 Position

Product Description

The MILBANK U5974-XT-5T9 is a ringless multi-position meter main with lever bypass designed for metered electrical service entry in residential and light commercial applications. Rated at 200 amps and 120/240 VAC, this unit supports both overhead and underground service configurations across four meter positions. The lever bypass allows utility personnel to disconnect and reconnect metering equipment without interrupting service to the load side — a critical feature for multi-tenant or multi-unit installations. The five-terminal ringless design meets utility requirements for socket-style metering and carries UL Listed certification. Licensed electricians handling utility-side metering work and electrical contractors installing service equipment are the primary installers.

This meter main is intended for four-position overhead or underground service installations where a single enclosure must house metering for multiple units. The ringless configuration is specified by utilities that do not require a meter ring for sealing. The lever bypass feature enables live bypass of individual meter sockets, making it suitable for multi-family residential buildings, small commercial properties, and similar applications where continuous service to occupied units is required during meter maintenance or replacement.

Key Features

• 200A amperage rating supports full residential and light commercial service loads

• Ringless socket type per common utility specifications across multiple service territories
• Lever bypass mechanism allows metering equipment service without load-side interruption

Compatibility

Designed as a multi-position ringless meter main for residential and light commercial service entrances where the serving utility accepts or requires a ringless socket with lever bypass capability. Verify utility acceptance and local AHJ approval before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the utility service at the transformer or weatherhead before working on line-side conductors, and coordinate with the serving utility for any live bypass operations. The enclosure dimensions of 34 inches H by 57 inches W by 5.968 inches D should be confirmed against available mounting space before rough-in. Do not exceed the 200A service rating and ensure conductor sizing, overcurrent protection, and grounding comply with NEC Article 230 requirements.
