B-LINE 215 MTBH – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line 215 MTBH meter socket be mounted outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. The 215 MTBH is built in a Type 3R enclosure, which is the rainproof rating used for outdoor service equipment on a building exterior. It surface mounts, so it lands flat on the wall rather than flush into it, and the galvanized steel body is finished in ANSI 61 gray paint for outdoor exposure.
2) Is a 7-jaw meter socket like the 215 MTBH right for a three-phase service?
Yes, that is exactly what the 7-jaw configuration is for. The 215 MTBH is specified 3 phase, 4 wire, which is the wye service a 7-jaw socket meters. A single-phase 120/240 V service takes a 4-jaw socket instead, so if the utility is feeding you single phase this is the wrong jaw count.
3) What size service conductors will the lugs on this B-Line meter socket take?
Both line and load terminals accept #6 through 250 MCM, so the socket handles anything from a small commercial feeder up to 250 MCM copper or aluminum service conductors. Above 250 MCM you need a larger socket or a parallel-lug arrangement.
4) Does this meter socket meet EUSERC requirements for a West Coast utility submittal?
It is EUSERC approved, which is what most western utilities require on the meter and service section of a submittal package. It is also UL listed. Your serving utility still has the final word on the specific socket number they will accept, but the EUSERC approval is the box that usually gets checked first.
5) Is this a ring type or ringless meter socket, and does it come with a test block?
Ring type, with a test block included. Ring type means the meter is secured with a sealing ring rather than a ringless cover, so the utility must be issuing ring type sockets on your service. The test block lets the utility bypass and test the meter without pulling the service, which is why it is commonly specified on commercial installs.
6) Will the 215 MTBH work for an underground service lateral, or only an overhead drop?
Either. It is built for overhead and underground feed, so the same enclosure covers a weatherhead drop or a lateral coming up from below. That matters on utility-coordinated jobs where the feed direction is not settled until the meter goes on.
7) How much wall space do I need for this Eaton B-Line meter enclosure, and is it a one-man lift?
Plan on 38 inches of height by 12 inches of width, with 4.63 inches of depth off the wall. It weighs 37 pounds empty, so one electrician can set it, though a second pair of hands helps when landing it on the layout.
8) What short circuit current rating does the B-Line 215 MTBH carry?
65 kAIC. That covers most commercial services fed from a utility transformer where the available fault current at the meter runs high, and it is the figure the engineer will want on the service equipment schedule.
9) How many meter positions does the 215 MTBH have?
One. It is a single-position socket, so it serves one tenant or one metered service. For a multi-family or strip retail building where several tenants are metered off one service, you need a multi-position meter stack instead.
10) What is the exact part number to order this B-Line meter socket?
Order it as B-Line 215 MTBH, part of the Eaton B-Line series meter breaker line. That designation covers the 3R ring type, 7 jaw, 3 phase 4 wire, single position configuration with the test block.
