Milbank U3852-XL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milbank U3852-XL meter socket work for a 200 amp residential service entrance?
Yes, for a single phase 200 amp service. The U3852-XL is a 4 terminal, 1 position ringless socket rated 200 continuous amperes at 600 VAC, 60 Hz. The 4 jaw configuration is the standard single phase 3 wire arrangement, so it suits a typical residential or light commercial service entrance. It has no main breaker built in, so overcurrent protection has to live downstream in the panel or in a separate service disconnect.
2) Does the Milbank U3852-XL have a main breaker, or do I need a separate disconnect?
No main breaker. The U3852-XL is a meter socket only, with zero main breakers and no receptacles, so it meters the service and nothing more. You will need a separate service disconnect or a main breaker panel downstream to satisfy the service disconnecting means. If you want metering and disconnect in one can, you are looking for a meter main combination instead of this socket.
3) Can the U3852-XL be used for an underground service, or is it overhead only?
Either one. Cable entry is rated for overhead or underground, so you can bring service in through the top with a hub for an overhead drop or feed it from below for a lateral. It ships with a small closing plate over the hub opening, so if you are going overhead you install a hub sized to your conduit; if you are going underground, the closing plate stays and you enter from the bottom.
4) Is the Milbank U3852-XL rated for outdoor mounting on the side of a building?
Yes. It is a Type 3R, UL Listed enclosure, which means it is built to shed rain, sleet, and ice on an outdoor wall. The can is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish and it surface mounts, so it fastens flat to the exterior wall or a backboard. Type 3R is not dust-tight or washdown rated, so it is not the right choice for an indoor process area needing 4X.
5) How much wall space do I need for the Milbank U3852-XL, and how far does it stick out?
The can measures 4.844 x 13 x 19 inches, with 19 inches the height, 13 inches the width, and 4.844 inches the depth off the wall. Budget clearance above for the hub or weatherhead and below for the load conduit, plus the working space in front your inspector expects. The side wireway is included in that 13 inch width.
6) What is the difference between a ringless meter socket and a ring-type one, and which does my utility want?
A ringless socket like the U3852-XL uses a removable cover that slides over the meter and is sealed by the utility, with no locking ring around the meter rim. A ring-type socket holds the meter with a sealing ring instead. The two are not interchangeable at the cover, and utilities specify one or the other by territory. If your utility's spec calls for ring-type, this socket will not be accepted. Verify against their approved socket list first, because it is the single most common reason a socket gets rejected at inspection.
7) Can I meter two apartments off one Milbank U3852-XL?
No. It is a single meter position socket, so it serves one metered account only. For a duplex or small multi-unit building where each tenant is billed separately, you need a multi-position meter stack or individual sockets per unit. Property managers replacing a bank of sockets on an older building will want one U3852-XL per existing single position can, assuming the utility accepts ringless with lever bypass.
8) What insulation is used on the meter jaw block, and does it hold up outdoors?
The jaw block on the U3852-XL is glass polyester, which is the standard insulating material for meter socket bases and resists tracking and moisture in a 3R enclosure. Paired with the galvanized steel can and powder coat, it is built for permanent outdoor service entrance duty.
9) What UNSPSC code should I use to requisition the Milbank U3852-XL?
UNSPSC 39121102 covers this socket. Purchasing departments at institutions, housing authorities, and municipal facilities that code electrical distribution gear by UNSPSC can drop that in directly. The manufacturer part number is U3852-XL and the product family code is 4T20.
