Can an EZ Meter-Pak main breaker or main fusible device also be used as a branch feeder device?
Issue:
Product design features
Product Line:
EZM Metering
Resolution:
The EZM main breaker and main fusible devices are not suitable for use in a meter center for backfeeding applications. Line and load markings in these mains are indicated on their wiring diagrams, preventing these mains from being used for backfeeding. Therefore, they CANNOT be used as branch feeder devices, they can ONLY be used as mains.
NOTE: ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO CHECK WITH LOCAL UTILITY COMPANY AND/OR LOCAL CODE AUTHORITY'S BEFORE USING:
An option would be to use an EZM main lugs tap box in the line-up for backfeeding larger loads located downstream to the meter centers.
