Eaton Specification Sheet - UTH5330UCH
Feature → Business Impact → ApplicationThe 320A amperage rating enables a robust service connection capable of sustaining high-load residential or commercial metering, reducing the risk of nuisance tripping and enabling scalable energy distribution across circuits. This directly improves reliability for facilities with elevated demand profiles and supports long-term capacity planning for growing loads in light commercial applications.The five-jaw connection paired with a 5x5 hub cover plate simplifies field wiring and enclosure compatibility, lowering installation time and reducing the chance of wiring mistakes. This is especially beneficial for contractors working in retrofit projects where space is constrained and quick, repeatable installations matter in metering enclosures.Top/bottom feed capability provides flexible entry options, accommodating different service entry configurations and easing mounting in existing or new service pedestals. In practice, this reduces site disruption and speeds up project timelines while ensuring compliant, clean conductor terminations for reliable operation.Lever bypass offers a safer, faster way to isolate and bypass the meter during maintenance or testing, minimizing downtime and manual switching errors. This feature lowers maintenance costs and improves service continuity for commercial metering circuits and residential service installs alike.UL Listed certification with a 600 Vac rating reinforces safety and regulatory compliance, while Kentucky utility approvals confirm local applicability. Together, these attributes support consistent electrical code adherence, predictable performance, and smoother procurement for utility-driven metering projects.The unit’s dimensions and weight—39.88 in height, 20 in width, 6.5 in depth, and 38 lb—facilitate planning in tight spaces and standard enclosure fitments, reducing the risk of installation conflicts and expediting site readiness in both new and retrofit projects.

FAQs
What you’ll need to know starts with space planning: this meter socket is 39.88 in tall and 20 in wide with a 6.5 in depth, weighing 38 lb. It supports top or bottom feed, a five-jaw connection, and a 5x5 hub cover plate. Ensure enclosure compatibility, proper grounding (Gnd conn #14-#2 Cu), and safe clearance for service conductors. This reduces field rework and accelerates commissioning.
Yes. The unit is UL Listed and rated for 600 Vac operation with a 320A capacity, which aligns with common metering safety standards. It also carries utility approvals for Kentucky (KY: Louisville Gas & Electric/Kentucky Utilities), supporting regulatory compliance for specific regional projects and utility interconnections.
For commercial and residential metering, the 320A rating and 600 Vac suitability ensure robust performance under peak loads, while the lever bypass and ringless design reduce maintenance time and risk. The 5-jaw configuration and 5x5 hub plate simplify installation in standard metering enclosures, enabling faster project delivery and dependable service.
It addresses weight and space concerns with a manageable 38 lb mass and a compact 6.5 in depth. Top/bottom feed flexibility accommodates diverse service routes, and the lever bypass minimizes downtime during service work. The UL Listed certification further reduces risk, supporting smoother inspections and fewer punch-list items.
The combination of UL safety certification, durable construction, and compatibility with standard metering components accelerates commissioning, reduces field errors, and lowers ongoing maintenance costs. Utilities and contractors benefit from predictable performance, faster turnarounds on metering work, and improved long-term reliability in both new builds and retrofit projects.
