Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL 200-Amp Ringless Meter Main with Lever Bypass, 4-Jaw, 4-Sockets, 120/240-Volt AC

The Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL is a ringless meter main combination panel engineered for multi-metering electrical service entrances where several individually metered services must be housed in a single, code-compliant enclosure. This unit combines a 4-jaw, 4-socket metering configuration with an integrated lever bypass mechanism, allowing utility personnel and electricians to remove or service an individual meter without de-energizing the remaining metered positions or disrupting power to other tenants. Rated 200-Amp at 120/240-Volt AC, the U5974-XT-5T9-BL is sized for standard single-phase residential and light commercial service loads. The ringless design eliminates the separate meter ring found on older meter socket designs, resulting in a lower-profile enclosure that is easier to install, wire, and service in the field. Milbank meter main equipment of this type is commonly specified for multi-family housing, apartment buildings, and other multi-tenant properties that require separately metered utility service to each unit.

Key Features

  • Ringless Meter Main Design: The ringless meter main construction removes the separate meter ring assembly, producing a lower-profile, more compact enclosure that simplifies mounting and field wiring.
  • Integrated Lever Bypass: A lever bypass mechanism lets an individual meter be pulled for testing, replacement, or maintenance while keeping continuous power flowing to the downstream load, minimizing service interruptions.
  • 4-Jaw Meter Sockets: Each metering position uses a 4-jaw socket configuration for secure meter seating and reliable, low-resistance current-carrying contact.
  • 4-Socket Multi-Metering Configuration: With four separate meter sockets in one enclosure, this meter main is well suited for multi-family, multi-tenant, and other applications that require independent utility metering for multiple occupants from a single service point.
  • 200-Amp Rated Capacity: Each metering position is rated for 200-Amp service, matching common residential and light commercial load requirements.
  • 120/240-Volt AC Service: The unit is configured for standard 120/240-Volt AC single-phase service, the voltage configuration used throughout U.S. residential and light commercial construction.

Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL a single-meter socket or does it handle multiple tenants?
It's a four-position unit. The U5974-XT-5T9-BL houses four separate meter sockets in one enclosure, so four individually metered services (apartments, duplex or townhome units, separate tenant spaces) can be fed from a single service point. Each position uses a 4-jaw socket. If you only need one metered service, this is more enclosure than the job calls for.
2) What amperage and voltage is the Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL meter main rated for?
200 amps at 120/240 volts AC, single phase, which is the standard U.S. residential and light commercial service configuration. Each metering position carries the 200-amp rating. It is not a 208Y/120 three-phase unit, so don't spec it for a three-phase service.
3) What does the lever bypass on this Milbank meter main actually do for me in the field?
The lever bypass lets you pull an individual meter for testing, change-out, or maintenance while power keeps flowing to that position's downstream load. On a four-tenant bank that means one unit's meter can be swapped without dropping the other three or killing power to the occupant. That's why utilities and property managers spec bypass on multi-tenant banks: no coordinated outage required for a routine meter change.
4) What does ringless mean on a meter socket, and does my utility allow it?
Ringless means there's no separate sealing ring around the meter; the cover itself secures over the meter and seals, giving a lower-profile enclosure that's simpler to mount and wire. Ring-type sockets use a band clamp ring instead. Utilities publish which style they accept in their service requirements, and many jurisdictions are ringless-only while others are ring-type-only, so confirm the style with the serving utility before you order a bank of four. The U5974-XT-5T9-BL is the ringless configuration.
5) Will a 4-jaw meter socket work for my service, or do I need 5-jaw or 7-jaw?
4-jaw is the socket for single-phase 120/240V three-wire service, which is what this Milbank unit is built for. 5-jaw sockets are used for network or 120/208V single-phase services and 7-jaw for three-phase metering. If your utility's meter for that address is a 5-jaw or 7-jaw form, this unit is the wrong socket configuration.
6) Can I use this Milbank meter main on an apartment building retrofit, not just new construction?
Yes. Multi-family retrofits and meter bank replacements are a typical application for the U5974-XT-5T9-BL, alongside new construction. On a retrofit the two things that decide it are whether the existing bank is four positions at 200A per position on 120/240V service, and whether the utility accepts ringless in that territory.
7) Is the Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL a meter socket only, or does it include main breakers?
It's a meter main combination, meaning the metering and the service disconnect equipment are housed together in one enclosure rather than the socket feeding a separate panel. That's what lets a multi-tenant service entrance be built from a single piece of gear instead of a socket bank plus a distribution section.
8) What is the exact part number to order this Milbank 4-position ringless bypass meter main?
Milbank U5974-XT-5T9-BL. That full string matters: the suffixes identify the bypass and configuration variant, and Milbank builds many U-series enclosures that differ only in those trailing characters. Give the utility inspector the complete number when submitting the service application.
