Installing a 5 jaw meter can 200 120/208v single phase. Does the neutral go in center like regular 120/240 single phase? MY first time installing a 5 jaw meter can the center slot and side slot for neutral is throwing me off.
 
If I remember correctly the 5th jaw is for the neutral of the meter. The service neutral goes on the service Neutral lug of the enclosure and the 5th jaw has a jumper that connects to the neutral.

The fifth jaw, connected to neutral, can be mounted at the 9:00 position, slot horizontal (most common) or the 6:00 position, slot vertical. The stab on the back of the meter can be installed at either position, so either way you install it will work. If the POCO guy says you have to move it, it's just because he's lazy.:happyyes:
