The Siemens RH173GR is a heavy-duty, 3-phase, 200 Amp ringless meter socket designed to serve as the main electrical service entrance point for commercial and industrial facilities. It is a surface-mounted enclosure built of steel, suitable for outdoor use (protecting against rain, sleet, snow, and external ice formation). A key feature is the lever bypass mechanism, which allows utility personnel to safely redirect power around the meter for maintenance or replacement without interrupting the customer's service, and it utilizes a 7-jaw terminal configuration to accommodate the three phases, neutral, and ground. This meter socket is essential for environments requiring a robust, high-amperage 3-phase connection for utility metering.
