Milbank U2874-XT-5T9 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the 200A rating on the Milbank U2874-XT per meter position or for the whole 4-position socket?
The 200 continuous ampere rating on the Milbank U2874-XT applies to the socket positions, and the unit carries four meter positions in one enclosure. It is a 1-phase, 60 Hz device with no main breaker and no branch breakers in the can, so all overcurrent protection sits downstream in each tenant's panel or in a separate main.
2) Does this Milbank 4-gang meter socket come with main breakers or tenant disconnects?
No. The U2874-XT is a straight metering enclosure: zero main breakers, no breaker provision, and no receptacles. If the utility or the AHJ wants a service disconnect at the meter bank, you need a separate disconnect or a main-breaker style meter-main pack instead of this one.
3) Can this meter socket be fed overhead, or does it have to be underground?
Either. The U2874-XT is built for overhead or underground entry using a center wireway, and it ships with twin large hub closing plates so you can open the plate you need for a service hub on an overhead drop and leave the other closed. Hubs themselves are ordered separately to match your conduit size.
4) Is a ringless meter socket what my utility wants, or do I need a ring-type?
This is a ringless socket, meaning the cover itself locks over the meter and no sealing ring is used. Utilities specify one or the other and they are not interchangeable, so match the ringless call-out on your service order. The U2874-XT is a 5-terminal, lever bypass design and is noted as an Ameren Energy unit, which is the tell that it was built to that utility's spec sheet.
5) What does the 5th terminal option on the Milbank U2874-XT do, and do I need it?
The 5th terminal is a neutral or ground reference terminal some utilities require inside the socket. The base U2874-XT is 5-terminal already; the U2874-XT-5T9 places that terminal in the 9 o'clock position, which certain utilities specify. There is also a U2874-XT-QG-AMS quadplex ground lever bypass version listed as 3-position Ameren approved. Order the terminal arrangement your serving utility calls out, because a socket with the terminal in the wrong clock position will not pass their inspection.
6) Will this socket work on a 3-phase service?
No. The U2874-XT is a 1-phase, 60 Hz, 5-terminal socket. A 3-phase service needs a 7-jaw socket, and installing this one on 3-phase will not meter correctly and will not be accepted by the utility.
7) Why choose a lever bypass meter socket over a non-bypass one?
The lever bypass lets the meter be pulled and swapped while the tenants below stay energized, which is why most utilities require it on multi-family banks. Without bypass, every meter change is an outage for that unit. If your utility does not permit bypass on the customer side, you want a plain socket instead, because the bypass hardware is built into this can and cannot be removed.
8) Can this Milbank meter socket be mounted outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. It is a surface mount enclosure with a Type 3R rating and it is UL Listed, so it handles rain, sleet and ice on an outdoor wall. The body is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish for corrosion resistance. Type 3R is not a washdown or dust-tight rating, so for a corrosive or coastal environment confirm the AHJ is not asking for 4X.
9) How much wall width do I need to plan for this 4-position Milbank meter bank?
Plan on 52.25 inches of width, with a 6 inch depth figure given for the enclosure. That is a long horizontal run, so on a narrow tenant wall or between windows, lay it out before the rough-in and confirm you can still hold the utility's meter center height and working clearance in front.
10) Is there a lockable version of this Milbank 4-position socket for a property where tenants can reach the meters?
Yes, the U2874-XT-HSP carries a stainless steel hasp so the cover can be padlocked. That is the one to spec on ground-level installations, alleys, or any multi-family site where you want the bank secured beyond the utility seal, and stainless holds up better than plated steel on an outdoor 3R can.
11) What insulates the jaw assemblies in this Milbank meter socket?
Glass polyester supports the jaw assemblies. It holds dimension and dielectric strength through the heat cycling a 200 amp service puts on the socket, which matters on a 4-position bank where all four sets sit in one can and share the thermal load.
