We installed a new Square D meter main combo at a duplex in Lehigh Acres that is being converted into a single home. The property had two electric meters on the outside wall, one for each side of the duplex. The new meter main consolidates the service into one meter.
- Location: Lehigh Acres, Florida
- Service: meter main installation and meter consolidation
- Equipment: Square D meter main combination service entrance device, 3-1/2 inch rigid conduit riser
- Status: new meter main installed; removal of the two old meters is waiting on approval
What we did
- Installed a Square D meter main combination service entrance device on the exterior wall.
- Installed a 3-1/2 inch rigid conduit riser to feed the new meter main.
- Consolidated the service from two meters into one for the converted single home.
Once approval is received, the two original meters will be removed. We will update this page when that is done.
Why consolidate meters
A duplex has a separate service for each side. When the two sides become one home, a single service entrance with one meter and one main disconnect replaces the pair. See our panel and service upgrade page or ask us about your conversion.
