Key specs include 200A amperage rating, 1-phase operation, 600 Vac maximum voltage, top/bottom feed capability, 5-jaw connectors, compatibility with #6-350 kcmil conductors, quadplex and ringless 3-wire configuration, and lever bypass for maintenance. The unit weighs about 25 lb and measures roughly 19" H x 13" W x 4.94" D, with a 1-position commercial or residential service design.
Yes. The UTTE5213BCH supports both top and bottom feed configurations, providing installation flexibility for a range of meter enclosures and utility requirements. This capability reduces field modifications, speeds up commissioning, and simplifies routing in constrained spaces while maintaining compliance with 1-ph 200A service standards.
Certification details are provided by Eaton and vary by market. The UTTE5213BCH supports standard utility interconnection practices (e.g., Ameren notes) and commonly referenced regulatory pathways such as UL/CE equivalents where applicable. For specific certifications in your region, request the manufacturer’s documented compliance package and verify with your local authority having jurisdiction.
Lever bypass reduces maintenance downtime by enabling safe, rapid servicing without full de-energization. The 200A rating supports scalable loads, while the compact dimensions simplify installation and retrofit. The unit’s warranty terms, coupled with robust grounding (two copper grounding connections) and durable construction, contribute to lower lifecycle costs and faster return on investment for facility upgrades and new builds.
