Brian G Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 I can't really tell from the photo, but I'd say it's certainly possible that it is a 200 amp meter base. It doesn't look small to me compared to the panel enclosure (30 circuit 200 amp is a pretty large can). I don't see how anyone could say definitively from that picture, but I would guess it's right.

randynavarro Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Okay, Jim and / or Brian - how do you determine the capacity of a meter base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian G Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 It's written on the face of the meter itself. Jim has a good photo of it, he's posted it before. I'm not sure if it's physically possible to plug in a wrong size (actually I think it is), but it's up to the utility to make sure they match before hooking up (around here anyway). The meter base label is on the inside of the enclosure, so we can't check it once the meter is in. Brian G. Who You Callin' Meter Face?!

Konrad Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 He said he's "just guessing by the physical size of the meter". *yoink* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well tell him he's a little girly-punk engineer, and Jim will meet him anytime, anyplace, to slap the wrinkles out of his little girly-punk engineer skirt. [:-dev3][:-fight][:-splat][] Brian G. Yeah.
