Ensure Safe, Code-Compliant Power Delivery from the Utility Pole to Your Panel
The meter socket is the first point of contact between your electrical service and the utility company — and it plays a critical role in safely delivering power to your home or business. If your meter socket is corroded, damaged, outdated, or not up to code, it may pose a serious safety hazard or fail inspection.
At Second Opinion Electric, we provide professional meter socket upgrades and replacements that meet all local utility standards, NEC codes, and AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) requirements.
What Is a Meter Socket?
A meter socket (also called a meter base) is the enclosure that holds your utility meter. It connects your service entrance wires to your home’s main panel, allowing the power company to measure usage and maintain safe, grounded service.
If the meter socket is damaged or out of spec, utility companies may refuse to restore power or require an immediate replacement.
