Milbank U3514-XL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Milbank U3504-XL and U3507-XL meter sockets?
Terminal count. The Milbank U35-XL ring-type sockets come in 4-terminal and 7-terminal builds at each amp rating: U3504-XL is 125 amp 4-terminal, U3507-XL is 125 amp 7-terminal, U3514-XL is 200 amp 4-terminal, and U3517-XL is 200 amp 7-terminal. The 4-terminal socket is the single-phase 3-wire arrangement; the 7-terminal is used where the utility meters a network or three-phase 4-wire service. Your serving utility dictates which terminal configuration they will set a meter in, so match the socket to their meter spec sheet before you order.
2) Can this Milbank meter socket be mounted outside on an exterior wall?
Yes. The U35-XL socket uses a Type 3R enclosure, which is the rainproof rating for outdoor service equipment, and it is UL Listed. The body is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish, and it surface mounts to the wall. That is the standard exterior service entrance build.
3) Does the Milbank U35-XL meter socket have a main breaker in it?
No. This is a meter socket only, with no main breaker and no receptacles. You still need separate service disconnect and overcurrent protection downstream, either a main breaker panel or a service disconnect ahead of the panel, depending on how far the conductors run inside the building. If you want the disconnect built into the same can, you are looking for a meter main combination, not this socket.
4) Will the Milbank ring-type socket work for an underground service lateral, or is it overhead only?
Both. Cable entry is overhead or underground, so the same socket handles a service drop from a pole or a lateral coming up from below. It ships with a small closing plate for the hub opening, so if you are feeding overhead through a hub you supply the hub, and if you are going underground you leave the plate in place and bring conduit through the bottom.
5) Is a ring-type meter socket the right choice, or do I need ringless?
That is entirely your serving utility's call, and the two are not interchangeable. A ring-type socket takes a sealing ring around the meter rim to lock the meter in place; a ringless socket uses a full cover that seals over the whole meter. Utilities standardize on one or the other and will refuse to set a meter in the wrong style. The Milbank U35-XL is ring type. Check the utility's meter installation requirements before ordering either.
6) What does link bypass mean on a meter socket, and do I need it?
Link bypass lets the utility or an electrician keep power flowing to the load while the meter itself is pulled, by closing a bypass link across the socket jaws. Without it, pulling the meter kills the building. Many utilities require bypass on commercial and multi-family services so meter changes do not drop tenants. If your utility does not require it, a non-bypass socket is the simpler part, but bypass costs you nothing operationally and is what most POCOs now spec at 200 amp.
7) What voltage and amperage is the Milbank U35-XL meter socket rated for?
600 volts AC at 60 hertz, which covers any standard 120/240V single-phase or 120/208V service you will meet on a residential or light commercial job. Amp rating depends on the model you pick: 125 amp on the U3504-XL and U3507-XL, 200 amp on the U3514-XL and U3517-XL. Size the socket to the service, not the load calculation, and match the utility's required rating.
8) How do the conductors land in this Milbank socket, and do I need lugs?
Lay-in terminals, so the service conductors drop straight into the terminal from above rather than threading through a closed lug barrel. That saves real time on a 200 amp reconductor when you are working stiff aluminum in a tight can. The terminals are part of the socket, so no separate lugs to order.
9) Does this meter socket have a bonded neutral, and do I need a separate ground bar?
The U35-XL comes with a bonded neutral for equipment grounding, which is what you want at the service entrance where the neutral to ground bond is required. If this socket sits ahead of the service disconnect, that bond is correct. Grounding electrode conductor still lands per your local utility and inspector's requirement.
10) How many meters can the Milbank U35-XL socket hold?
One. It is a single position socket, so a duplex or an apartment building needing separate tenant meters requires either multiple sockets or a multi-position meter stack. For two or more tenants on one service point, look at a Milbank meter pack rather than ganging single sockets.
11) How deep is the Milbank U35-XL meter socket for clearance behind trim or a recessed wall?
The stated product length is 4.844 inches. Worth knowing when you are mounting on a stucco return, a shallow chase, or anywhere the socket has to sit inside a trim opening.
12) What insulation is used inside the Milbank meter socket?
Glass polyester, the standard insulating material for the jaw block and terminal insulators in service equipment. It holds up to heat and tracking in an outdoor enclosure that sees temperature swings and condensation.
