Milbank U5882-X – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milbank U5882-X meter socket handle two 200 amp services in one enclosure?
The U5882-X is a 2-position ringless socket rated 200 continuous amperes, single phase, up to 240 volts AC at 60 Hertz, with two branch circuits and a main breaker provision at each position. It's built for duplexes, townhomes, and tenant-metered commercial buildings where each unit needs its own meter and its own main. Confirm the 200A rating against what your utility is granting per position before you set the can.
2) What size service conductors will land in the Milbank U5882-X meter socket?
Load side lugs on the standard U5882-X take 1 AWG through 300 kcmil. If you're pulling parallel or oversized aluminum feeders, order the double connector version, model U5882-X-2/200-KK-K3-DPL or U5882-X-2/200-KK-K3-PEP, which take 6 through 350 kcmil in a double connector. Equipment ground is a ground lug.
3) Does my utility have to approve the meter socket, and does Milbank make a version for mine?
Utility acceptance is the first thing to settle on any meter can, and the U5882-X ships in utility-specific builds: DPL approved (U5882-X-2/200-KK-K3-DPL), PEPCO approved (U5882-X-2/200-KK-K3-PEP), Alliant Energy approved (U5882-X-KK-K1-ALT), and CECHA approved pedestal mount (U5882-X-KK-K1-PED-CECHA). Outside those territories the standard U5882-X or horn bypass U5882-X-KK is the usual starting point. Pull the socket off your utility's approved equipment list before ordering, because a can the serving utility won't set is a can you can't energize.
4) Can the Milbank U5882-X be mounted on a pedestal instead of a building wall?
Both mounting styles are covered. The socket is a surface mount unit as standard, for wall or backboard. For meter pedestals away from a structure, order a PED build: U5882-X-KK-PED, U5882-X-KK-K1-PED with the single connector, or U5882-X-KK-K1-PED-CECHA for a horizontal CECHA approved pedestal. Pedestal versions are the common answer for mobile home parks, RV sites, and lot-line services where there's no wall to hang 30 inches of can on.
5) How much wall space do I need for a Milbank 2-position 200A meter socket?
Plan for 5.125L x 26.5W x 30H inches. That 26.5 inch width is the number that catches people, because two side-by-side meter positions need a clear run of wall wider than a single-position can, and the 5.125 inch depth sets how far it stands off the siding or block. Lay out the meter height and working clearance per local code before you drill the backboard.
6) Does the Milbank U5882-X include the main breakers?
No. The U5882-X has main breaker provisions, meaning the interior is prepped to accept a main breaker at each of the two positions, but the breakers themselves are ordered separately and sized to each service. There are also no receptacles in this enclosure, so if the job calls for a GFCI convenience outlet at the meter you'll need to provide it elsewhere.
7) Will the Milbank U5882-X work on a 3-phase service?
No. This socket is single phase only, rated up to 240 volts AC at 60 Hertz. A three phase commercial service needs a three phase meter socket with the correct meter form, not this one. If you're metering a 208Y/120 or 480Y/277 three phase service, the U5882-X is the wrong part.
8) What does the horn bypass option on the Milbank U5882-X do and do I need it?
Horn bypass lets the meter be pulled and the service stay live, so the utility or a tech can change a meter without dropping power to the tenant. Most of the U5882-X builds carry it, flagged KK in the part number (U5882-X-KK is the plain horn bypass version). The base U5882-X has no bypass. Many utilities require bypass on 200A residential and commercial service, so this is generally dictated by the serving utility rather than by preference.
9) Can the Milbank U5882-X be used for an underground service, or is it overhead only?
Either. Cable entry is overhead or underground, and the socket ships with a large hub closing plate so you can open it for a service entrance hub on an overhead drop or leave it closed and bring conduit in from below for a lateral. The hub itself is a separate item sized to your raceway.
10) Is the Milbank U5882-X rated for outdoor installation?
Type 3R and UL Listed, so it's rated for outdoor use against rain, sleet, and ice. The shell is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish and glass polyester insulation behind the jaws, which is the construction you want on an exterior wall exposed to weather year round.
11) What's the difference between a ringless meter socket and a ring-type one, and which do I order?
A ringless socket uses a hinged or lift-off cover that seals over the meter instead of a separate sealing ring clamping the meter to the socket, so the meter comes out by removing the cover. The U5882-X is the ringless style. Which one you need is not an installer preference, it's set by the serving utility, and many utilities specify one exclusively. Check the utility's spec sheet, because a ring-type requirement means this socket won't be accepted no matter how the rest of the specs line up.
12) Can I get the Milbank U5882-X with a barrel lock provision for utility sealing?
Two barrel lock builds are available: U5882-X-KK-BL for a 9/16 inch barrel lock and U5882-X-KK-BLG for a 7/8 inch barrel lock. Barrel size is the utility's call, so match it to whichever lock your serving utility uses on its sockets. If your utility seals with a wire seal instead, the standard horn bypass U5882-X-KK is the build to order.
13) What's the single connector versus double connector option on the Milbank U5882-X?
Connector choice is about how many load conductors land per phase. Single connector builds (U5882-X-KK-K1) take one conductor per terminal within the 1 AWG to 300 kcmil range. Double connector builds (U5882-X-2/200-KK-K3-DPL and U5882-X-2/200-KK-K3-PEP) accept 6 to 350 kcmil and are what you want when you're landing two conductors, running parallel sets, or feeding through to a downstream tap.
