Milbank U1527-O – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milbank U1527 meter socket work for a 200 amp single-phase residential service?
Yes. The U1527 is a single-position, 4-terminal ringless socket rated 200 continuous amperes at 600V AC, 60 Hz, single phase. That's the standard configuration for a 120/240V single-phase residential or light commercial service. It has no main breaker and no bypass, so it is a meter socket only, the service disconnect goes downstream.
2) What is the difference between the Milbank U1527-O plain top and the U1527-XL small closing plate?
Both are the same 200A 4-terminal ringless socket; the difference is the top of the can. The U1527-O is a plain top, an open top for service entrance conduit or a weatherhead riser coming straight in. The U1527-XL comes with a small closing plate to close off that top opening, which is what you want when the service feed enters from the side, bottom, or back and you need the top sealed for the Type 3R outdoor rating.
3) Can my 4/0 aluminum or 250 kcmil service conductors land in this Milbank meter socket?
They can. Both line and load terminals on the U1527 accept 6 AWG through 350 kcmil, so 4/0 aluminum and 250 kcmil are well inside the range, and so are smaller 2/0 and 4/0 copper builds. The terminals are lay-in type, so the conductor drops into the lug rather than threading through a closed barrel, which makes dressing large stiff service cable a lot easier in a shallow can.
4) Is the Milbank U1527 socket rated for outdoor mounting on an exterior wall?
Yes, it's a Type 3R enclosure and UL Listed, so it's built for outdoor wall mounting with rain and sleet exposure. The can is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish for corrosion resistance. It's surface mount, so it fastens to the wall face rather than recessing into the stud cavity.
5) Does the U1527 have a meter bypass, and does that matter for my utility?
No bypass on the U1527. The utility has to pull the meter and cut power to work on the socket, which is normal for residential service but is the thing to verify first, since many utilities require a horn bypass or lever bypass on 200A commercial or multi-family installs. If your utility spec calls for bypass, this model won't be accepted and you need a bypass version instead.
6) Why is this a 4-terminal socket and not 5-terminal, and which one do I need?
Four jaws is the standard single-phase, 3-wire 120/240V arrangement: two line jaws, two load jaws. A fifth jaw is used where the utility meters a network or requires a fifth terminal for certain 120/208V or 3-phase arrangements. The U1527 is a 4-terminal, single-phase unit, so confirm the utility's meter form before ordering, a 5-jaw requirement will not accept this can.
7) How much wall space does a Milbank U1527 meter socket take up?
The can measures 4.125 inches long by 11 inches wide by 15.5 inches high. That 4.125 inch depth is what to check against siding, trim, and any handrail or walkway clearance, and the 15.5 inch height matters when you're setting the meter within the utility's required center height range.
8) Is the neutral bonded in the Milbank U1527, or do I need to add a bonding screw?
The equipment ground is bonded neutral in the U1527, so the neutral is factory bonded to the enclosure. That's the correct arrangement on the line side of the service disconnect. Downstream of that point, in the panel, the neutral and ground must be separated, so don't carry the bond past the disconnect.
9) Do I get a main breaker or disconnect with this Milbank meter socket?
No. The U1527 is a meter socket only, zero main breakers, no receptacles, one meter position. You will need a separate service disconnect or main breaker panel downstream, plus conduit, fittings, and a ground rod or grounding electrode connection to finish the service.
10) What makes a ringless meter socket different from a ring-type one?
A ringless socket uses a hinged or removable cover held by a sealable latch instead of a separate locking ring clamping the meter to the socket rim. Utilities specify one or the other and they are not interchangeable in the field, so match whichever your serving utility requires. The U1527 is the ringless style with a single meter position.
11) Will the U1527 hold up in a coastal or wet environment?
The enclosure is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish over it, which is the standard corrosion package for outdoor meter cans, and the internal insulation is glass polyester. Rated Type 3R for outdoor use. For directly salt-exposed coastal work, many specs push toward stainless, so check the project requirement before standardizing on galvanized across a portfolio.
