Milbank CE1313-CECHA-GC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Milbank CE1313-CECHA-GC meter socket a CT-rated can, or does it carry the full service load?
It's a CT (current transformer) metering socket, not a self-contained one. The 20 amp continuous rating is the instrument-circuit rating from the CTs, not the service size, so the actual load current runs through separate current transformers and the service conductors never pass through this enclosure. That's also why the line and load side wire range is 10 AWG on both sides, and why there's no main breaker in it. If you need a socket that carries the whole service, this is the wrong can.
2) Will a 13 jaw meter socket work for my 3 phase 4 wire service?
Yes. The 13 terminal jaw arrangement is the 3 phase configuration, rated 600V AC at 60 Hz with a ground lug for the equipment ground. It holds one meter position. If your utility specified a 7 jaw or 8 jaw socket, that's a different can, 13 jaw sockets won't take those meters.
3) What does the CECHA / GC suffix on the Milbank CE1313 actually mean?
CECHA is the Commonwealth Edison Chicago Housing Authority approval, and the GC is that specific version of the can. Practically, it means the socket is built to the ComEd CHA spec sheet, which is what the inspector and the utility meter department will be checking against on a Chicago job. On a project outside a ComEd service area the approval buys you nothing, order to your own utility's approved-socket list instead.
4) Can this Milbank ringless socket be bypassed for a meter change?
No. It's specified with no bypass provision, so the meter has to come out with the circuit de-energized or handled per the utility's procedure. The prewired test switch on this can is what the meter tech uses to safely short the CT secondaries and open the potential circuit during testing. If your spec calls for a lever or horn bypass, you need a different socket.
5) How much wall space do I need for the Milbank CE1313-CECHA-GC?
Plan for a surface mounted enclosure measuring 4.12 deep by 12 wide by 20 high in inches. It bolts flat to the wall or backboard, it is not a flush or semi-flush can, so add clearance in front for the meter and the test switch cover.
6) Is this meter socket rated for outdoor mounting?
Yes, it's UL Listed and carries a Type 3R rating, which covers rain and sleet on an outdoor wall. The body is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish, and the jaw insulation is glass polyester. Type 3R is not dust-tight or washdown rated, so it's not the enclosure for a hosed-down or heavily contaminated area.
7) Does the Milbank CE1313 plain top socket come with a hub for conduit, and can I feed it from underground?
It ships plain top, meaning no factory hub opening, so an overhead service needs a hub or a field-made entry per the utility's rules. The can accepts either overhead or underground cable entry. Hubs are ordered separately.
8) What terminals does the CE1313-CECHA-GC use and what wire will land in them?
Single mechanical terminals, with both the line and load side taking 10 AWG. That's instrument-circuit wire for a CT metering installation, so don't plan on landing service-size conductors here, they belong in the CT cabinet.
9) What else do I need to order to complete a CT metering install with this socket?
The socket alone won't finish the job. It holds one meter position, has no main breaker and no receptacles, so the current transformers, the CT cabinet or enclosure, and any overcurrent device are separate items. If the feed comes in overhead you'll also need a hub, since the can is plain top.
10) Ringless versus ring type meter socket, which one does the utility want?
The utility decides, and it varies by territory. A ringless can like the Milbank CE1313-CECHA-GC uses a sealable cover that the meter department locks, with no separate sealing ring around the meter rim, that's the arrangement ComEd's Chicago Housing Authority spec calls for here. If your utility's approved list says ring type, a ringless socket will fail the meter set, so check the approved-socket list before you buy.
