A meter center assembly includes a first meter center with a plurality of sides including a first side having a plurality of first openings, and a second meter center beside the first meter center with a plurality of sides including a second side having a plurality of second openings and an internal surface. Each of a plurality of threaded fasteners passes through a corresponding pair of one of the first openings and one of the second openings. A plurality of rigid members are coupled to the internal surface of the second side of the second meter center. Each rigid member includes an opening that threadably receives a corresponding one of the threaded fasteners. Each threaded fastener, when threadably received by the opening of a corresponding one of the rigid members, secures the first side of the first meter center to the second side of the second meter center.

A clamp-jaw contact assembly is for a meter socket including a socket block having plurality of meter socket receptacles. The clamp-jaw contact assembly includes a stationary contact structured to engage a corresponding one of the meter socket receptacles, a moveable contact pivotally coupled to the stationary contact by a pivot member, such as a rivet, and a clamping element which is coupled to the stationary contact and includes an integral jaw spring. The integral jaw spring biases the moveable contact toward the stationary contact in order to secure a meter bayonet therebetween. The moveable contact also has a closed position in which it resists insertion of the meter bayonet between the moveable contact and the stationary contact.

An interior assembly for a load center includes a base member disposed at or about a panel member of the load center housing, a first bus bar assembly disposed on the base member, and a first insulating member overlaying the first bus bar assembly and being coupled to the base member. A first portion of the first insulating member receives circuit breakers of the load center, and a second portion receives a second bus bar assembly. A second insulating member overlays the second bus bar assembly and is coupled to the second portion of the first insulating member. A neutral bus bar is coupled to the second insulating member. A fastening mechanism fastens the interior assembly to the panel member. The base member, first and second bus bar assemblies, first and second insulating members, and neutral bus bar are secured together without the use of separate fasteners.

摘要:
A cover assembly is provided for an enclosure, such as an electrical enclosure. The enclosure includes a panel member and a plurality of sides extending outwardly from the panel member to define an interior. The cover assembly includes an inner cover, at least one fastening mechanism fastening the inner cover to the enclosure, a trim member at least partially overlaying the inner cover, and at least one biasing assembly coupling the trim member to the inner cover. The at least one biasing assembly biases the trim member toward the inner cover, and is structured to bias the trim member toward an exterior surface of a structure, such as a building wall, to which the electrical enclosure is coupled.
