Ameren Approved

  • 4 jaw, lever bypass, 200A, ringless

About

  • Ring vs ringless. Ringless has a cover installed at end, after the meter - for visibility of potential short circuit such as a 'wrench in the machine.' [1]. Otherwise, locking mechanism is clear and you can't tamper with meter once locked.
  • Some designs have bypass. Horn or lever. Ameren requires lever? Horn bypass are $200 cheaper. [2]
  • Large or small hub. Small hub at menards - [3]
  • 5 jaw example? [4]
  • looks like 5 jaw [5]
