• All 100A 5-Jaw stacks have the fifth Jaw in the 9 o’clock position. Provision is made for conversion to the 6 o’clock position.
• 200A 5-Jaw stacks have provision to accept both 6 and 9 o’clock 5-Jaw meters.
• Short circuit calculations should be completed prior to ordering to ensure that the equipment is not applied on systems with capacity greater than the
equipment's interrupting capabilities.
• Dimensions are approximate. Do not use for construction.

Mounting Rail (MCMR) features “hook and hang” positioning on a separate mounting channel when installing multiple meter stacks. The mounting
channel is secured to the wall to suit local Utility meter height requirements, then the devices are hung on the channel. This provides a positive
means of support during installation. Each mounting rail is 50 3/4 inches in length and can accommodate up to 3 meter stacks. Order quantity as
required based on total width of meterstack line up.

◆ Main Bus Link Connectors are required for each additional stack when joining two or more meter stacks. The first stack or single stack installa-
tion does not require bus links since the tap box is supplied with main service lugs and bus bar link connectors. Order (1) MC6MBK400 per
phase for 400A applications, (2) MC6MBK400 or (1) MC6MBK600 per phase for 600A applications, (2) MC6MBK400 per phase for 800A
applications and (2) MC6MBK600 per phase for 1200 A applications.

Mounting Rail
Catalogue Number MCMR
Mounting Rail (MCMR) features “hook and hang” positioning on a separate mounting channel when installing multiple meter stacks. The mounting
channel is secured to the wall to suit local Utility meter height requirements, then the devices are hung on the channel. This provides a positive
means of support during installation. Each mounting rail is 50 3/4 inches in length and can accommodate up to 3 meter stacks. Order quantity as
required based on total width of meterstack line up.
