Product Description
A meter breaker is service entrance equipment that consists of a single meter socket and loadcenter (circuit breaker
distribution section) or meter socket and main breaker combined in one enclosure. Sometimes called Combos, All-In-Ones, Meter
Centers or Meter Mains these units are increasing in popularity as the socket and loadcenter or main breaker are located in
one location, thus providing the contractor with a labor and material savings when installing.
Application Description
In addition to residential installations, meter breakers are equally applicable for rural service entrance, mobile homes, and
construction site temporary power. Meter breakers are most often sold in the western, southwestern and southeastern United
States. The popularity of meter breakers is continuing to increase as more utilities deregulate and pass the responsibility of
supplying watt-hour meter sockets on to the electrical contractor.
