<div dir="ltr">Hi Jeff -<div><br></div><div>There are several 400 A (or 320 A continuous) meter/mains on the market with 2 x 200 A breakers. In the Bay Area these are frequently referred to as "California 400" panels, even though they are installed with a self contained 320 A rated utility meter, rather than a 400 A CT-meter. They are great for systems with large energy storage, because one 200 A breaker can feed non-backup loads and the other 200 A breaker can feed backup loads and solar. Anyway, here's one such example:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.milbankworks.com/products/catalog/M400-UG-APS-LC">https://www.milbankworks.com/products/catalog/M400-UG-APS-LC</a></div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>August</div><div>Luminalt<br><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Mar 29, 2022 at 10:15 AM Jeff Clearwater via RE-wrenches <<a href="mailto:re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org">re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

Good Day Wrenches,<br>
<br>
Does anyone know of a 400 Amp Meter/Main that can accomplish the
following?<br>
<br>
1) Provide 2 x 200 Main Breakers for Loads<br>
2) Provide an easy supply side tap point for 160 Amps of Grid-tie Solar
(so basically a 200 Amp backfeed)<br>
<br>
I'm considering using an <span style="font-weight:bold"><a href="https://www.rexelusa.com/p/525405/eaton-b-line/400a-4p-4-jaw-meter-socket/782051622102/324-n" target="_blank">Eaton
324 N</a></span> (Eaton B-Line 324 N 400A, 320 A cont. 4P, 4 Jaw,
Meter Socket W Link Bypass Facilities) but I'm not sure I can double lug
it and then also tap off of one of the 200 Amp lines with another tap
(using <a href="https://www.ilsco.com/Ilsco/ccrz__ProductDetails?sku=IPC-250-4%2F0-ILSM-ILS&cclcl=en_US" target="_blank">Ilsco
IPC-250-4/0</a> splice connectors).<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
