Milbank TS10-0016 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What pole arrangement does the Milbank TS10-0016 test switch use, and will it cover a 3-element meter installation?
The TS10-0016 is a 10-pole switch arranged barrier, potential, barrier, potential, barrier, potential, barrier, solid neutral, current return. That gives you three potential circuits with barriers between them plus a solid neutral and a current return pole, which is the arrangement used for testing a three-element metering circuit without dropping the neutral. Handle colors run red, red, red, then six black, so the three potential handles are identified at a glance.
2) Does the Milbank TS10-0016 metering test switch come with an enclosure?
No enclosure is included. The TS10-0016 ships as an open switch assembly meant to be mounted inside an existing metering cabinet, CT cabinet, or switchboard instrument compartment. Budget for the enclosure or panel space separately.
3) How much panel space do I need to mount a Milbank 10-pole test switch?
Plan on roughly 9.5 inches across for the 10-pole body, with a 3.5 inch height and 2.906 inch length figure given for the switch. Measure the free area in your meter or CT cabinet against those numbers before you commit, since the switch has no enclosure of its own and mounts into space you provide.
4) Is the Milbank TS10-0016 UL Listed for utility and commercial metering work?
It is UL Listed, which is what most utilities and inspectors want to see on a test switch going into a revenue metering circuit. Construction is bronze alloy for the current-carrying parts with non-metallic insulation between poles.
5) How do the wires land on this Milbank test switch, screw terminals or studs?
Stud connections. Each pole terminates on a stud, so you land ring-tongue lugs and torque them down rather than clamping bare conductor under a screw. Crimp your CT and potential leads with ring terminals sized to the stud before you get to the cabinet.
6) Why does a metering test switch need a current return pole?
The current return pole on the TS10-0016 lets you short and shunt the CT secondary before you open the meter circuit, so the CT never sees an open secondary while a technician is pulling or testing the meter. That is the whole reason a test switch sits between the CTs and the meter instead of wiring the meter direct. The solid neutral pole stays connected so the potential reference is not lost during the test.
7) Can I use the Milbank TS10-0016 on a self-contained meter socket instead of CT metering?
It is not the part for that. This is an instrument rated test switch, meaning it belongs in a transformer-rated (CT/PT) metering circuit where the switch handles 20 amp instrument-level secondary current at up to 600V. A self-contained socket carries full load current through the meter and takes a meter socket or bypass socket instead, not a 20 amp test switch.
8) What is the exact part number and UNSPSC code for this Milbank test switch?
The manufacturer part number is TS10-0016 from Milbank, a 10-pole instrument rated metering test switch. Its UNSPSC classification code is 39122215, which is what most institutional and utility purchasing systems need on the requisition line.
