200A amperage rating enables headroom for typical commercial and light-industrial service feeders. This supports longer service life before upgrade and reduces project risk from undersized equipment. Application: underground meter sockets in B-Line series installations where #6-250 MCM lugs and four-jaw jaws are required. Four-jaw jaw design with a ring cover provides secure, corrosion-resistant connections and simplifies lead management. This improves reliability during meter changes and reduces callouts for shared-lug adjustments. Application: front-access, ring-type enclosures in outdoor or underground installations. Underground feed compatibility paired with front mounting reduces trenching and simplifies service-entry alignment. The result is faster installation, fewer field modifications, and easier maintenance. Application: meter sockets located at grade or near building perimeters in industrial sites. 1 pole, 3-wire configuration simplifies wiring diagrams and conforms to common service standards. This reduces wiring errors and lowers training time for installation crews. Application: standard single-phase metering for 200A commercial and residential combo setups. ANSI 61 paint finish on a steel enclosure delivers durable corrosion resistance in harsh environments. Business impact: longer service life and reduced maintenance costs in outdoor or underground installations. Application: exterior meter sockets exposed to weather, chemicals, or moisture. UL Listed certification underlines safety compliance and reliability across building codes. Business impact: streamlines procurement approvals and reduces risk of non-compliant installations. Application: any installation requiring recognized safety approval in North American markets.
