Milbank U1282-XL-KK-BLG – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milbank U1282-XL meter socket fit two meters on one service?
Yes. The U1282-XL is a 2-position socket, so two meters land in one enclosure on a single-phase service. Each position is 5 terminal (5 jaw), which is the single-phase, 3-wire network configuration. The whole enclosure measures 4.5 x 24.5 x 14 inches and surface mounts, so plan wall space for the full 24.5 inch dimension.
2) What wire sizes can I land in this 100A Milbank ringless meter socket?
Line side terminals take 2 AWG through 350 kcmil, and load side terminals take 6 AWG through 2/0 AWG. They are lay-in terminals, so conductors drop in rather than threading through, which speeds up a tight gutter. There is also a ground lug for the equipment ground.
3) Does this Milbank socket include a main breaker or disconnect?
No. The U1282-XL is a meter socket only, with zero main breakers and no receptacles. Overcurrent protection has to come from a separate main breaker or main disconnect downstream, or from utility-side protection. If you need metering and a main in one can, you want a meter main combination instead.
4) Can this meter socket be mounted outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. It is UL Listed with a Type 3R enclosure rating, which covers rain, sleet and ice on an outdoor wall. The body is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish for corrosion resistance, and it surface mounts.
5) What does the horn bypass do on a Milbank meter socket, and do I need it?
Horn bypass lets the utility keep power flowing to the load while the meter is pulled for testing or replacement, so the tenants do not go dark during a meter swap. On multi-unit buildings and commercial service, many utilities require bypass provision. If your utility does not require it, a non-bypass socket is the simpler order, but bypass never hurts you on a two-position building service.
6) Can I feed this meter socket from an underground lateral, or is it overhead only?
Either. Cable entry is rated for overhead or underground feed. It ships with a small hub closing plate, so if you are coming in overhead with a raintight hub you install the hub in that opening; for underground you close the top with the plate and bring conduit in from below.
7) Does this Milbank socket accept a utility barrel lock for tamper sealing?
Yes. It comes with a 7/8 inch knockout and an angle bracket for a barrel lock, which is what most utilities use to secure a ringless cover. The lock itself is supplied by the utility, not with the socket.
8) Is a 300V rated meter socket acceptable for 120/240V residential service?
Yes. The U1282-XL is rated 300 volts AC at 60 hertz, single phase, which covers standard 120/240V single-phase three-wire service. It is not suitable for 120/208V three-phase or 277/480V systems.
9) What does the 100 amp rating mean for a two-meter socket like this?
Each metering position on the U1282-XL is rated 100 continuous amperes. It is not a 100 amp total split between two tenants. Size the line side conductors for the combined load the utility permits, within the 2 AWG to 350 kcmil terminal range.
10) Ringless versus ring type meter socket, which one does my utility want?
Ringless sockets like the U1282-XL use a sealed cover that the utility locks in place instead of a separate locking ring around the meter. Which style is allowed is set by the serving utility, not by code, so check the utility's service requirements before you buy. Ringless is the common requirement across much of the Northeast and Midwest.
11) What insulating material are the jaws mounted on in this Milbank socket?
The jaw assemblies sit on glass polyester insulation, which holds up to heat and moisture in an outdoor 3R enclosure better than plain phenolic. Combined with the G90 galvanized steel shell, it is built for exterior service entrance duty.
12) What UNSPSC code should I use to requisition this Milbank meter socket?
UNSPSC 39121102 covers it, and the Milbank product family code is G125. For procurement systems, pair that with the exact MPN, either U1282-XL-KK-BLG or U1282-XL-PSEG-DES depending on the utility.
