Remote metering (meter loop) for underground residential services

What is remote Normally, a meter base/socket and associated devices (current transformers, etc.)
metering? are attached to a permanent fixed structure that contains the load being served
(such as a house). If the metering equipment is not attached to the permanent
structure, it is called “remote metering.” In this case, the conductors that run from
the meter to your house are installed, owned, and maintained by you.

Requirements for Remote metering shall be mounted on a structure or meter post. It is your
residential remote responsibility to purchase, install, and maintain this equipment. The required
metering, 200 A metering cabinet and supporting structure are shown in Figure 13.
