Milbank NU8980-O-200-KK-CECHA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Milbank NU8980-O pedestal meter socket work with an overhead service drop?
No. The NU8980-O pedestal unit is built for underground cable entry only, and the top is a plain top hub closing plate, so there is no hub opening for a weatherhead riser. If the service comes in overhead, you need a socket with a hub opening in the top instead. For direct-bury pedestal installs fed from underground, this is the right configuration.
2) What size service conductors can I land in the Milbank NU8980-O meter socket?
The line side terminals take 6 AWG through 350 kcmil, with single mechanical terminals. That covers a 200 amp underground service in copper or aluminum without needing a reducer. Equipment grounding is two barrel ground lugs.
3) Is the Milbank NU8980-O rated for 120/240V single phase residential service?
Yes. It is a single phase, 4 terminal socket rated up to 240 volts AC at 60 hertz, with one meter position. That is standard residential and light commercial single phase service. It is not a three phase socket, so a 7 jaw or 5 jaw three phase meter will not fit the 4 jaw configuration.
4) What is the difference between the 200A provision and 200A standard breaker versions of the Milbank NU8980-O?
The provision versions (NU8980-O-KK and NU8980-O-KK-LP) ship with the main breaker space empty so you supply and install the main yourself. The breaker-included versions come with the main factory installed: NU8980-O-200-KK at 200 amps, NU8980-O-100-KK at 100 amps. Order a provision unit only if the utility or your own stock is supplying the main, otherwise the pedestal arrives without a disconnect.
5) Which Milbank NU8980-O part number do I order for a Chicago ComEd or Chicago Housing Authority job?
Order one of the CECHA approved part numbers: NU8980-O-200-KK-CECHA, NU8980-O-200-KK-LP-CECHA, or NU8980-O-KK-CECHA. Those are the Commonwealth Edison and Chicago Housing Authority approved configurations. The non-CECHA equivalents are the same pedestal but without that approval designation, and a Chicago inspector will look for it.
6) Do I need a separate load center panel with the Milbank NU8980-O meter pedestal?
No, the load center is built in, with space for 5 branch circuits alongside the meter socket and main. For a small cottage, a well pump and pool package, an RV or marina stand, or a construction service, that usually finishes the job in one enclosure. If the dwelling needs more than 5 branch circuits, plan on feeding a separate panel from the main instead.
7) Can the meter be pulled on a Milbank NU8980-O without killing power to the load?
Yes, it has a horn bypass provision, so a utility tech or lineman can maintain continuity through the socket while the meter is out. That matters on occupied units where you cannot drop power to change or test a meter. Note that horn bypass is manual and utility operated, not a lever the tenant touches.
8) Is the Milbank NU8980-O ringless socket approved for outdoor direct burial pedestal mounting?
It is a Type 3R enclosure and UL Listed, built from G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish, which is what carries it through rain, sleet and ice on an exposed pedestal. Type 3R is the standard outdoor rating for service equipment that is not subject to hosedown or submersion.
9) Ringless versus ring type meter socket, which one does my utility want?
Ringless is what most utilities specify now: the cover itself locks over the meter and the utility seals the cover, so there is no separate sealing ring to lose or cut. The NU8980-O is a ringless 4 terminal socket. A ring type socket uses a band clamp around the meter rim and a ring type meter cover, and the two are not interchangeable, so check the utility spec sheet before ordering because swapping later means a new enclosure, not a new cover.
10) What is the low profile breaker option on the Milbank NU8980-O and when do I need it?
Low profile versions (NU8980-O-200-KK-LP, NU8980-O-KK-LP, NU8980-O-SF100-KK-LP) use a low profile standard frame main so the breaker sits shallower in the enclosure. Small frame is a separate choice at 100 amps: NU8980-O-SF100-KK. Match the option to whatever breaker frame the utility or your drawing calls out, since the frame type determines what will physically seat in the pedestal.
11) Are there any receptacles built into the Milbank NU8980-O pedestal?
None. The NU8980-O carries zero receptacles, so if the job needs GFCI outlets on the pedestal (RV sites, marina slips, job site temp power), this is not the unit. You would either land a receptacle on one of the 5 branch circuits in a separate box, or order a power outlet pedestal that includes receptacles from the factory.
12) Can I run a 200 amp service continuously through the Milbank NU8980-O, or is that a peak rating?
The 200 ampere rating is a continuous ampere rating, not an intermittent or peak figure, so it holds a full 200 amp single phase service. If the calculated load is 100 amps, the 100 amp breaker versions (NU8980-O-100-KK, NU8980-O-SF100-KK) cover it in the same enclosure.
13) What insulation is used in the Milbank NU8980-O meter socket jaws?
Glass polyester, which is the insulating base the meter jaws and line/load terminals mount to. It holds up to heat and tracking better than a plain phenolic base, which is what you want on a socket that sees full 200 amp continuous load in an outdoor pedestal.
