Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK-BLG – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK meter socket a 150 amp or a 200 amp unit?
Both numbers are on the spec sheet and they describe different parts of the same combo. The enclosure and socket are rated 200 continuous amps, while the main breaker installed in it is a single 150 amp breaker. So the service you can actually pull through it is limited to 150 amps by the breaker, and the socket itself is built to 200 amp class. If your utility is setting a 200 amp service, this unit's breaker will not carry it.
2) Will the Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK meter main work on a 120/240V single phase residential service?
Yes, that is exactly what it is built for. The unit is rated 1 phase, up to 240 volts AC, 60 hertz, with one meter position and a 4 terminal jaw socket, which is the standard single phase residential and light commercial metering arrangement. It will not serve a three phase service.
3) How many breaker spaces does the Milbank 150A meter main combo have, and can I add circuits later?
The integrated load center carries 8 branch circuit spaces below the 150 amp main, plus a ground bar for equipment grounding. Eight spaces is the whole capacity of the unit, so if the job needs more than eight branch breakers you will have to feed a separate subpanel from one of those spaces rather than expanding this enclosure.
4) Can this Milbank meter socket be mounted outside on an exterior wall?
Outdoor surface mount is the intended install. The enclosure is Type 3R rated and UL Listed, built from G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish, and it surface mounts to the wall or structure. Type 3R is a rain and sleet rated outdoor enclosure, not a washdown or dust tight one, so it suits a normal exterior service entrance location.
5) Does this Milbank meter main work for an underground service, or only overhead?
Either one. Cable entry is rated for overhead or underground, and the unit ships with twin small hub closing plates so you can open the top for a weatherhead and mast or leave it closed and bring the lateral in from below. The hub or conduit fitting itself is a separate item you supply to match the service.
6) What is the difference between the four ordering options on the Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK?
Four builds of the same 150 amp meter main. The base U5168-XTL-150-KK is the standard unit. The -ALT is the Alliant Energy approved build, which is what you order if the utility on the job is Alliant. The -BLG adds a 7/8 inch barrel lock provision, and the -PL comes with 7/8 inch knockouts for a lock provision. Which one you need is set by the serving utility's sealing and locking requirement, not by the electrical rating, and all four share the same 150 amp breaker and 8 circuit load center.
7) What wall space do I need to fit the Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK, and how far does it stick out?
Plan on a footprint of 4.5L x 14.125W x 30H inches: 30 inches of vertical run, 14.125 inches across, and 4.5 inches of depth off the wall. The 30 inch height matters most on a tight install, because the meter has to land in the utility's required height window and the load center section sits below it in the same can.
8) What does horn bypass do on a meter socket, and do I need it?
Horn bypass lets the utility shunt current around the meter so the meter can be pulled and swapped without dropping power to the building. On the Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK it is factory built in. Many utilities require bypass on residential and small commercial sockets, and for a property manager it means a meter change does not become a tenant outage. If your utility does not require bypass, a non-bypass socket is the simpler and smaller option.
9) Should I use a combination meter main or a separate meter socket and panel?
A combo like the Milbank U5168-XTL-150-KK puts the socket, the 150 amp service disconnect, and an 8 circuit load center in one outdoor Type 3R can, so there is one enclosure to mount, one set of conductors to land, and the disconnect sits right at the service point. That is the usual pick for a house, a small shop, or a metered unit where eight circuits is enough and the panel can live outside. Go with a separate socket and an indoor panel instead when you need more than eight spaces, when the distribution panel has to be inside, or when the disconnect and the branch panel need to be in different locations.
10) Is this a ringless meter socket, and will my utility accept it?
Ringless is the design, with a 4 terminal jaw socket and one meter position. Ringless sockets use a hinged or lift off cover retained by the enclosure rather than a locking ring around the meter, and utilities generally specify one style or the other for their territory. Ask the serving utility which they accept before ordering, and if the job is on Alliant Energy, order the Alliant approved build.
11) Does the Milbank 150A meter main include a receptacle or a GFCI outlet?
No receptacle is built in, the unit carries zero. If the job calls for a service entrance outlet, such as an exterior GFCI convenience receptacle near the equipment, it has to be a separate device fed from one of the eight branch spaces.
12) Does this Milbank meter main come with a ground bar, or do I have to add a grounding kit?
A ground bar is included as the equipment ground provision, so equipment grounding conductors from the branch circuits land in the unit as supplied. Insulation in the socket section is glass polyester. You still supply the grounding electrode conductor and electrode per the local code, and any neutral bonding hardware the inspection requires.
