Milbank UC7445-RL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Terminal Option number mean on the Milbank UC74 series ringless meter socket?
It's the jaw/terminal configuration, and it's how you match the socket to the utility's metering requirement. The UC74 series is offered as UC7442-RL (option 5), UC7478-RL (option 6), UC7444-RL (option 8), and UC7445-RL (option 13). All four share the same 20 amp continuous rating, 600V AC, single meter position, and single mechanical terminal construction. Your serving utility specifies which configuration it will accept, so get that from them before you pick the part number.
2) Can I use this Milbank 20 amp meter socket for a 200 amp residential service?
No. This one is rated 20 continuous amperes, which is transformer-rated metering territory, not a 200 amp self-contained service socket. The wire range confirms it: 12 to 10 AWG on both line and load side. A 200 amp service lands 4/0 aluminum or similar and won't fit these lugs. For a 200 amp self-contained residential service you need a 200 amp Milbank socket, not the UC74 series.
3) Will this Milbank ringless socket mount outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. It carries a Type 3R rating and is UL Listed, so it's built for outdoor wall mounting where rain, sleet and ice are in play. The enclosure is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish, and it's surface mount, so it fastens flat to the wall rather than recessing into it.
4) Can I feed this meter socket from an underground lateral, or is it overhead only?
Either one. Cable entry is rated for overhead or underground, and the enclosure comes with a small hub opening at the top with a closing plate, so you can hub it for an overhead service drop or plate it off and bring conduit in from below for an underground feed.
5) Does this Milbank socket include a main breaker or a bypass lever?
Neither. It's a straight meter socket: no main breaker, no bypass provision, and no receptacles. If you need overcurrent protection at the meter you'll have to add a separate disconnect downstream, and if your utility requires a horn or lever bypass to pull the meter hot, this isn't the socket for that job.
6) How much wall space do I need for the Milbank UC74 meter socket?
Plan for a footprint of 4.125 x 12 x 20 inches, with 20 inches the height and 12 inches the width, so it's a tall narrow can projecting about 4-1/8 inches off the wall. Leave working clearance in front per your local code and the utility's meter height rule on top of that.
7) What is a ringless meter socket and why would the utility ask for one?
A ringless socket uses a one-piece cover that seals over the meter instead of a separate sealing ring clamping the meter to the socket rim. The UC74 series is the ringless style. Many utilities standardize on one or the other across their territory, and a ringless cover won't accept a ring-type meter installation, so confirm which your utility seals before ordering. On the install side, ringless means fewer loose parts to hold during the meter set.
8) What is the test switch provision on this Milbank socket actually for?
It gives the utility or test technician a point to take meter readings and verify accuracy without dropping service to the customer. That's the usual reason a socket like this gets specified on a light commercial or multi-family property where the meter gets periodically verified. Note the socket ships with the provision for a test switch, not with switchgear or a breaker installed.
9) Can one of these Milbank sockets meter two tenants in a duplex?
No. It's a single-position socket, one meter per enclosure. For a duplex or any multi-tenant building where each unit needs its own meter, you either set one of these per unit or move to a multi-position meter stack.
10) Is the Milbank UC74 the right socket for a CT metering installation?
It falls in Milbank's CT20 product family and is rated 20 continuous amperes with 12 to 10 AWG line and load terminations, which is the wiring you'd run from instrument transformers rather than full service conductors. Your utility dictates the CT cabinet, the transformers, and the acceptable socket configuration, so match the terminal option to their metering standard.
11) What voltage and frequency system does the Milbank UC74 socket work on?
Rated 600 volts AC at 60 hertz, so it covers standard North American residential and commercial service voltages up to 600V. The insulating base is glass polyester. It is not intended for 50 Hz systems.
