Milbank K5830 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Milbank interlock kit do I order for a QN frame main and a Q frame backup breaker?
Milbank builds the breaker interlock kit in three frame pairings, and the pairing has to match the two breakers in the enclosure. K5815 is the QN frame to Q frame kit, K5820 is QN frame to QN frame, and K5830 is Q frame to Q frame. For a QN main working against a Q frame breaker, that is K5815. Identify both breaker frames before ordering, because the kits are not interchangeable across pairings.
2) What does a Milbank breaker interlock kit actually do in a meter socket or panel?
It is a mechanical interlock that ties two breakers together so only one can be closed at a time. In Milbank's Q and QN frame kits that is used for temporary bypass: power gets routed through the second breaker while the first is open for service or meter work, and the interlock is what physically prevents both sources being live into the same bus. It is hardware only, no electrical parts, no insulation in the kit.
3) Will a Milbank Q and QN interlock kit fit breakers from another manufacturer?
No. These kits are cut for Milbank Q and QN frame breakers specifically, and the interlock slide has to line up with those breaker handles and the mounting pattern behind them. A breaker of a different frame designation, or another brand's breaker in a Milbank enclosure, is not a fit. Confirm the frame stamped on both breakers is Q or QN first.
4) Is an interlock kit enough, or do I need a separate bypass meter socket?
Two different approaches. The interlock kit adds temporary bypass capability to breakers you already have in place, so it suits a retrofit where the enclosure is staying and you just need a code-safe way to transfer between two breakers. A factory bypass socket is the answer when you are specifying new gear and want the bypass built into the meter socket itself. For maintenance and service work on existing Milbank Q or QN frame equipment, the kit is the cheaper and less invasive route.
5) Do Milbank breaker interlock kits come with installation instructions?
Yes, an instruction sheet is included in the kit. That matters here because the interlock has to be installed so the mechanical action genuinely blocks simultaneous closure, and an inspector will look at it. Nothing else is bundled, so any hardware beyond what is in the kit comes from the enclosure or the breakers themselves.
6) Does installing a Milbank interlock kit require punching knockouts in the enclosure?
No knockouts are part of the kit. It is an interlock mechanism that mounts to the breakers and enclosure interior, not a fitting that carries conduit, so there is no knockout to open for it. Conduit entry stays whatever the enclosure already provides.
7) What UNSPSC code should I use for a Milbank breaker interlock kit on a purchase order?
UNSPSC 39121321 covers the Milbank Q and QN frame breaker interlock kit. Useful if you are loading it into a procurement system or matching it against a facility standards list. Order by the MPN for the frame pairing you need: K5815, K5820, or K5830.
