Milbank U5896-PXL-200 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milbank U5896-PXL-200 meter socket work on a 200A single phase 120/240V residential service?
That is exactly what it is built for. The U5896-PXL-200 is a 1-phase, 4-terminal ringless socket rated 200 continuous amperes at up to 240 volts AC, 60 Hz, with one 200 ampere main breaker built in. One meter position. Single phase 3-wire residential and light commercial service entrance is its intended use.
2) Does this Milbank meter socket have a meter bypass, and does that matter for my utility?
No bypass. The U5896-PXL-200 is a no-bypass socket, so the meter has to be pulled with the service de-energized or under the utility's own procedure. Many utilities require a lever or horn bypass on 200A residential sockets before they will set a meter, so check the utility's approved meter socket list first. If bypass is required, you need a different Milbank model.
3) Can I use this meter socket for an underground lateral, or is it overhead only?
Either one. Cable entry is rated for overhead or underground service, and the lay-in terminals let you drop conductors in from the top or feed from below. A small closing plate ships inside the socket to close the unused hub opening, so if you run underground and do not use a top hub, you have the plate to blank it off.
4) What size service conductors will fit the lugs on this 200A Milbank socket?
Line side lugs take 6 AWG through 350 kcmil, and load side lugs take 1 AWG through 300 kcmil. So a typical 4/0 aluminum SE or 2/0 copper 200A service lands fine on both sides. Equipment grounding is handled by a 2-barrel ground lug.
5) Does this include the service disconnect, or do I still need a separate main breaker panel?
The disconnect is in the socket. One 200 ampere main breaker is integrated, which gives you the service overcurrent protection and the outside disconnecting means in the same can. Downstream you can feed a main lug only panel instead of a main breaker panel. There are no branch receptacles or extra breaker spaces in this unit, so any branch circuits go in the panel you feed.
6) Can I use this socket on a 3-phase service?
No. This is a single phase unit with a 4-terminal jaw arrangement, rated to 240 volts. A 3-phase service needs a 7-jaw socket. If you are metering 3-phase, this is the wrong part.
7) Can this Milbank meter socket be mounted outdoors on an exterior wall?
Yes. It carries a Type 3R enclosure rating and is UL Listed, and the shell is G90 galvanized steel with a powder coat finish for outdoor corrosion resistance. It is a surface mount unit, so it bolts flat to a wall or meter pole rack, not flush into the wall.
8) How much wall space do I need for the Milbank U5896-PXL-200?
Plan for 4.5 x 17 x 34.5 inches, with the 34.5 inch dimension being height and 17 inches the width. It is a wide-shell enclosure, so on a tight meter pedestal or between a downspout and a corner, measure the 17 inch width before you set the backing.
9) What does ringless mean on a Milbank meter socket, and will my utility accept it?
Ringless means there is no sealing ring around the meter; the cover itself slides down over the meter and is sealed by the utility. Utilities specify one style or the other by territory, and a ringless cover will not work where a ring-type socket is required. The U5896-PXL-200 is ringless with a 4-terminal jaw configuration, so confirm both against the utility's meter socket standard before you set it.
10) Do I need to buy a hub for the top of this Milbank meter socket?
Only if you are coming in overhead through the top. The socket ships with a small closing plate inside it that blanks the hub opening, so for an underground feed you install the plate and buy nothing extra. For an overhead mast you add the appropriate hub sized to your conduit.
11) Is this Milbank socket suitable for a multi-unit property where I need more than one meter?
Not on its own. The U5896-PXL-200 is a single meter position unit, so it covers one tenant or one service. For a duplex or apartment building you would need one socket per unit or a multi-position metering stack.
