Milbank U4518-XL-TG-5TW – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need the 4-terminal or 5-terminal version of the Milbank U4518 meter socket?
That depends on what your utility requires. The Milbank U4518 is offered as a 4-terminal plain top (U4518-O-W), a 4-terminal with small closing plate (U4518-XL-TG-5TW), and a 5-terminal triplex ground configuration (U4518-XL-W). Four-terminal sockets are the common single-phase 3-wire arrangement; the fifth terminal is used where the utility meters a network or requires the extra terminal. Call the serving utility first, because the socket has to match their meter and their approved list.
2) What size conductors will fit the Milbank U4518 200A meter socket terminals?
Both line and load terminals take 6 AWG through 350 kcmil, and they are lay-in type, so you drop the conductor in rather than threading it through a lug barrel. That range covers typical 200A service conductors in copper or aluminum. The socket is rated 200 continuous amperes at 600V AC, 60 Hz.
3) Is a main breaker or bypass included in the Milbank U4518?
No. The U4518 is a socket only, with no bypass provision and no main breaker, and it has zero receptacles. Overcurrent protection has to come from a separate main breaker panel or service disconnect downstream. If the utility or local inspector requires a lever bypass for hot meter pulls, this is the wrong socket and you need a bypass-equipped model instead.
4) Can the Milbank U4518 meter socket be installed outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. It is a Type 3R enclosure, which is rated for rain, sleet and ice, and it is UL Listed. The shell is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish, and it mounts to the surface of the wall. No flush or recessed trim is involved.
5) Will a Milbank U4518 work on a 3-phase service?
No. It is a single-phase socket with one meter position, rated 600V AC at 60 Hz. For a three-phase service you need a 3-phase socket with the correct terminal count for that metering arrangement.
6) How much wall space does the Milbank U4518 meter socket take up?
The enclosure measures 4.125 L x 11 W x 15.5 H inches, so figure roughly an 11 by 15-1/2 inch footprint on the wall with about 4-1/8 inches of standoff from the surface. Leave your normal working clearance in front of the meter per local code.
7) Does the Milbank U4518 come with the seal ring, or do I buy that separately?
The seal ring is included. Both 4-terminal options, U4518-O-W and U4518-XL-TG-5TW, are listed as including the seal ring. It is a ring type socket, so the utility's meter is retained by that ring and sealed, as opposed to a ringless socket where a cover does the job.
8) Is the Milbank U4518 suitable for a 200 amp residential service upgrade?
It fits that job, yes, provided your utility accepts a ring type socket. It is rated 200 continuous amperes, single phase, with 6 AWG to 350 kcmil terminals that cover standard 200A service conductors, and a Type 3R outdoor enclosure. You still need a separate service disconnect or main breaker panel, since there is no main breaker in the socket.
9) What is the difference between the plain top and the small closing plate version of the U4518?
Both are 4-terminal sockets with a seal ring. U4518-O-W has a plain top, meaning no factory opening for a hub. U4518-XL-TG-5TW comes with a small closing plate, which covers the top opening until you need to fit a hub or raceway entry there. Pick based on whether your service entrance comes in through the top of the enclosure.
10) How is the grounding handled in the Milbank U4518 socket?
The socket is built with a triplex ground, and the U4518-XL-W is specifically the 5-terminal triplex ground configuration. Insulation inside the enclosure is glass polyester, which carries the terminal assemblies.
