What is the meter base?

  • 2023-03-01

A meter base from Colshine Electric is a high-quality electric meter enclosure that is designed to accurately measure power consumption for residential and commercial buildings. The meter base, also known as a meter socket, is typically installed outside the building and connected to the electrical utility meter to monitor and record electricity usage.

 

Colshine Electric's meter bases are constructed using durable and weather-resistant materials such as aluminum or plastic to ensure long-lasting performance in a variety of conditions. They are tamper-resistant, preventing unauthorized access to the electric meter and ensuring accurate power measurement. The electric meter typically consists of a spinning disk that is turned by the flow of electricity, measuring the amount of electricity consumed.

The meter base is typically connected to the main circuit breaker panel and may include additional equipment, such as a disconnect switch or surge protector. These devices protect the building's electrical system from power surges and other electrical hazards.

 

Colshine Electric offers a wide range of electrical components, including meter bases, with competitive pricing and excellent customer service. Our commitment to producing high-quality products makes them a great option for those in need of a new meter base or other electrical components.
