100 A protection with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating is built into the U214 MTBL, providing robust fault clearance for metering feeders. The galvanized steel enclosure and ANSI 61 gray finish deliver durable protection in challenging environments, while four jaws and a single 1 Position, 3R configuration simplify wiring and mounting. This combination reduces the risk of nuisance trips and enhances system reliability, a critical factor in utility-grade metering deployments and large-scale commercial installations. The MCB design also supports integrated testing blocks for quick verification during commissioning. With a compact footprint (4.625 in depth, 20 in width, 24 in height) and surface-mount capability, the unit fits tightly within standard meter sockets and NEMA-rated enclosures. The 37 lb weight reflects a robust build without excessive bulk, easing handling during installation and retrofit projects. Compatibility with the Eaton B-Line series streamlines parts stocking and serviceability, reducing downtime for upgrades and expansion. This meter breaker is designed for 1Ø/3W service and features four jaws and a single position configuration suitable for common metering schemes. The design supports ring-style metering considerations and aligns with Eaton's metering guides, helping installers avoid mismatches between jaws and busbar ratings. UL certification and the 10 kAIC interrupt rating ensure regulatory compliance and dependable fault protection, helping meet NEC and local code requirements. Galvanized steel construction offers corrosion resistance and a long service life, while the ANSI 61 gray finish reduces maintenance needs in harsh environments. Quick-install features like surface mounting and standardized dimensions cut field labor hours during commissioning and future upgrades. Engineers can standardize on a proven meter-breaker platform across sites, improving interoperability and spare-parts planning. The combination of protection, durability, and ease of installation supports a lower total cost of ownership, minimizes downtime during outages, and aligns with utilities' efforts to modernize metering infrastructure.

FAQs
The U214 MTBL is a 1Ø/3W meter-breaker designed for compatibility with Eaton B-Line meter sockets. It features a surface-mount footprint, 4 jaws, and a 1 Position, 3R enclosure, which simplifies alignment with standard B-Line mounting patterns. When planning a retrofit, verify jaw configuration and busbar ratings match the ring-type metering arrangement used in your facility, and confirm enclosure dimensions fit within the available cabinet space.
Key specs include a 100 A amperage rating and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, UL certification, galvanized steel construction, and an ANSI 61 gray finish. It is a single-phase, 1Ø/3W meter-breaker with surface-mount installation and four jaws, designed for reliable protection of metering feeders in commercial and industrial settings.
Yes. The U214 MTBL is purpose-built for 1Ø/3W metering in commercial and light-industrial environments, offering robust fault protection (10 kAIC), a compact surface-mount design, and compatibility with B-Line meter sockets. Its durable galvanized steel construction and UL listing support long service life and regulatory compliance in diverse installation sites.
The unit is UL listed and rated for 10 kAIC interrupt capability. It uses galvanized steel with ANSI 61 gray finish for durable protection. These certifications and materials support compliance with NEC-related requirements and common utility metering standards, aiding in smoother inspections and long-term reliability.
The 100 A/10 kAIC rating paired with a galvanized steel enclosure reduces maintenance frequency by resisting corrosion and wear. Fast, surface-mount installation minimizes field labor and downtime during commissioning or upgrades. Over the equipment lifecycle, this translates to lower total cost of ownership, fewer field service visits, and improved metering uptime for critical facilities.
