Milbank U3940-O – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milbank U3940-O meter socket work for a 200A underground residential service?
That's exactly what the U3940-O is built for. It's a single-position, 1-phase ringless socket rated 200 continuous amps at 600V AC, 60 Hz, with underground cable entry through a side wireway. The 4-terminal jaw configuration is the standard single-phase residential/light commercial meter arrangement. Note there is no main breaker and no bypass, so it is a meter socket only, not a combination meter-main.
2) What size service conductors will fit the lugs on this Milbank 200A socket?
Both line and load terminals take 6 AWG through 350 kcmil, and they're lay-in style, so you drop the conductor in rather than threading it through a closed lug. That range covers typical 200A copper and aluminum service entrance sizes. There is also a ground lug for the equipment grounding conductor.
3) Can I use this socket for an overhead service drop instead of underground?
No. The U3940-O is configured for underground entry with a side wireway and ships with a plain top, meaning no hub and no provision for a service mast or weatherhead conduit at the top. For an overhead drop you need a hub-type or hub-provision ringless socket instead.
4) Does this Milbank socket include a bypass so the meter can be pulled without dropping power?
No bypass on this one. The U3940-O is specified as no bypass, so power is interrupted when the meter is removed. If your utility requires a lever or horn bypass for maintenance, you need a bypass-equipped socket instead.
5) Do I still need a separate main breaker panel with this meter socket?
Yes. With zero main breakers and no receptacles, the U3940-O only holds the meter and the line and load terminations. Your service disconnect and distribution have to be a separate load center or disconnect downstream of the socket.
6) Is this meter socket rated for outdoor wall mounting in the weather?
Yes. It's a UL Listed Type 3R enclosure, which is the rain, sleet and ice-protected rating used for exterior service equipment, and it surface mounts to the wall. The shell is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish for corrosion resistance, and the jaw assembly is insulated with glass polyester.
7) How much wall space do I need for the Milbank U3940-O, and will it fit where my old socket was?
The enclosure measures 4.5L x 13W x 15.25H inches, so plan on roughly a 13 by 15-1/4 inch footprint with 4-1/2 inches of projection off the wall. Compare that against the existing backplate and conduit locations before you demo the old can; the underground entry means your service conduit has to come up into the side wireway rather than the top.
8) Does a ringless meter socket need a sealing ring, or is the cover different?
Ringless means no separate locking ring. The utility's socket cover slides over the lip of the can and is secured and sealed directly, so there is no ring to order with it. Many utilities specify ringless by default, so verify which style your serving utility accepts before you set the U3940-O.
9) Can one U3940-O serve two apartments or two tenants?
No. It's a single meter position with one 4-terminal jaw set, so it meters one service only. Multi-unit buildings need either one socket per unit or a multi-position meter stack.
10) Will a 4-terminal socket work on a 3-phase service?
No. Four jaws is the single-phase, 3-wire arrangement, and this socket is rated 1 phase. A 3-phase 4-wire service requires a 7-jaw socket. Use the U3940-O only on 120/240V or other single-phase services up to 600V AC.
11) What is the Milbank part number and family code for this 200A ringless underground socket?
Order it as Milbank U3940-O. It falls under Milbank's 4T20 product family code, which denotes the 4-terminal 200-amp group, useful when you're matching a utility-approved socket list by family rather than by individual catalog number.
