Milbank U2855-X-KK-5T – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a 5-position Milbank U2855-X meter stack fit in a 32-inch wide wall space?
Tight but yes on width. The U2855-X measures 31 inches wide and 37 inches tall, so a 32-inch clear space leaves half an inch each side with nothing for the working clearance the NEC requires in front and around a service enclosure. Lay it out to the enclosure footprint plus code clearances, not just the wall opening.
2) I have no wall to mount a meter stack on. Is there a pedestal version of the Milbank U2855-X?
Yes. Two pedestal builds exist: the U2855-X-KK-PED, horn bypass with a single connector, and the U2855-X-KK-PED-CECHA, a vertical pedestal build approved for Commonwealth Edison and Chicago Housing Authority work. Everything else on the base unit is surface mount only, so if there is no wall you want one of the PED numbers.
3) Which Milbank U2855-X do I order for a ComEd job in Chicago?
For Commonwealth Edison and Chicago Housing Authority work, the U2855-X-KK-PED-CECHA is the build carrying that approval, a horn bypass vertical pedestal mount. ComEd is strict about which socket it will accept on a service, so ordering the plain U2855-X for a ComEd meter set risks a failed utility inspection.
4) Does the Milbank U2855-X have a bypass so meters can be pulled without killing power?
The horn bypass builds do: the U2855-X-KK, the 5-terminal U2855-X-KK-5T, and both pedestal versions. The plain U2855-X and the hasp version U2855-X-HSP are ordered without it. Many utilities require bypass on multi-tenant stacks so a single meter can be changed without dropping the other four tenants, so check the utility standard before you settle on the base number.
5) Will the Milbank U2855-X work on a 208Y/120 three-phase service?
No. The U2855-X is single phase, rated up to 240 volts AC at 60 hertz, with 4-terminal jaws. A three-phase service needs a three-phase socket with the correct jaw configuration, typically 7-jaw for network. Putting this on a three-phase service will not meter correctly and the utility will not set it.
6) Does each tenant position on the Milbank U2855-X 5-gang socket carry 125 amps?
No. The 125 continuous ampere rating is the socket's rating, not a per-tenant allowance across the five positions. Size the tenant breakers and the service to the calculated building load; treating each of the five positions as a full 125 amps will oversubscribe the enclosure.
7) Can the Milbank U2855-X be fed from an underground service lateral?
Yes, it takes either overhead or underground cable entry, and it ships with a large closing plate on the hub opening. Overhead feeds use a hub through that opening; on an underground lateral the plate stays closed and the conductors come up through the bottom. Landings are 3/8 inch stud terminals, with a ground lug for the equipment ground.
8) What lugs or terminations do I need for the line and load conductors on a Milbank U2855-X?
Terminations are 3/8 inch stud, so conductors land on compression or mechanical lugs with a 3/8 inch bolt hole, sized to your service conductor. The equipment ground is a ground lug. Size the lug kit to the conductor a 125 amp continuous service calls for, and buy the lugs with the wire, not after.
9) Is a ringless meter socket like the Milbank U2855-X the right choice, or do I need a ring-type?
Ringless versus ring-type is a utility decision, not a preference. The U2855-X is ringless, meaning the cover is secured directly and sealed rather than held by a sealing ring around the meter. Utilities specify one or the other in their service handbook, and a socket of the wrong style gets rejected at meter set. Check the handbook first, then pick the jaw count and bypass to match.
10) Can I lock the cover on the Milbank U2855-X for a housing project?
The U2855-X-HSP build adds a stainless steel hasp, which takes a padlock on the enclosure. That is the one to order where tenant tampering or open-site access is a concern. The standard U2855-X has no hasp, so retrofitting one later is not a field job.
11) Are there receptacles in the Milbank U2855-X for a house panel or laundry circuit?
There are none. The U2855-X carries zero receptacles, so any house load, laundry circuit or common-area panel has to be fed from a separate enclosure downstream. Some multi-unit sockets from the range include lever bypass receptacle positions; this one does not, so plan the house service separately.
12) How well does a Milbank meter socket hold up on a coastal or exposed site?
The enclosure is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish over it, which is the corrosion package for outdoor service, and the internal insulation is glass polyester rather than a phenolic. Combined with the Type 3R rating, it handles weather exposure. The hasp version uses stainless steel for that hardware specifically.
