Milbank U2875-XT-QG-AMS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Milbank U2875-XT meter socket include a main breaker or do I need separate overcurrent protection?
No main breaker. The U2875-XT is a meter socket only, with zero main breakers in the enclosure, so overcurrent protection has to come from downstream panels or a separate disconnect. Plan the job around that: this is the metering point, not the service disconnect.
2) What size conductors will land in the Milbank 200A ringless meter socket?
Load side terminations accept 6 AWG through 350 kcmil, on 3/8 inch studs. That range covers typical 200 amp copper and aluminum service conductors, but because the terminals are studs rather than set screws you'll need properly sized compression or mechanical lugs on the conductors to bolt up.
3) Can this Milbank socket be mounted outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. It's a surface mount enclosure with a Type 3R rating, which covers rain, sleet and ice, and the shell is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish for outdoor service. Surface mount means it hangs on the wall face rather than recessing into the wall, so allow for the enclosure standing proud of the finish.
4) Is this Milbank socket approved for Ameren service territory?
Milbank lists Ameren Energy as a special feature on the U2875-XT, and one of the ordering options, the U2875-XT-QG-AMS quadplex ground lever bypass 3 position version, is specifically noted as Ameren approved. Utility acceptance is always by the serving utility's own approved equipment list, so match the exact suffix your Ameren job requires.
5) What are the ordering options on the Milbank U2875-XT and how do they differ?
Three configurations are offered. U2875-XT-5T9 adds a fifth terminal in the 9 o'clock position, which some utilities require for network or self-contained metering. U2875-XT-HSP comes with a stainless steel hasp for padlocking the cover. U2875-XT-QG-AMS is the quadplex ground lever bypass 3 position version built to Ameren approval. Pick by what your utility specifies, since the fifth terminal position and the hasp are not field additions.
6) Can I use this Milbank socket for a 3-phase service?
No. The U2875-XT is a 1 phase, 60 hertz socket rated 200 continuous amperes. For a three phase service you need a socket built for three phase metering with the corresponding jaw arrangement; this one won't meter it correctly.
7) How many units can I meter with the Milbank 5-position ringless socket?
Five meter positions in one enclosure, which covers a five unit building or five separately billed spaces off a single 200 amp service point. For a fourplex where the utility wants a quadplex arrangement with grounded lever bypass, the U2875-XT-QG-AMS option is configured differently, so match the position count to the actual unit count before ordering.
8) How much wall space do I need for the Milbank U2875-XT meter socket?
The enclosure is 25.25 inches high with a 6 inch length dimension. Lay out the riser and service conductors around that footprint, and leave working clearance at the face for the utility to pull and set meters.
9) What does the lever bypass do on a meter socket, and do I need it?
The lever bypass on the U2875-XT lets the utility or a qualified tech shunt current around the meter socket jaws so a meter can be pulled and replaced without dropping the load. On multi-family and commercial metering it's usually the utility that dictates whether bypass is required, and many require lever bypass on 200 amp sockets. If your utility doesn't require it, a non-bypass socket is the simpler unit.
10) Why is this a ringless meter socket, and does it need a sealing ring?
Ringless means the cover itself secures over the socket without a separate meter ring, so there's no ring to order, lose, or seal. Utilities generally specify ringless or ring-type by territory, so confirm which style yours accepts before ordering. This one is ringless with twin large closing plates over the hub openings.
11) Are there any receptacles built into this Milbank meter socket for temporary power?
None. The enclosure carries zero receptacles, so it won't serve as a temp power pedestal. If you need convenience outlets on the service, specify a separate temp power unit or a socket model built with receptacles.
