In the past I've only installed separate CT cabinet and Generator dock enclosures. Can I install a CT termination kit within a cam lock connection box? Do they make a combo enclosure to do both CT metering and a generator connection? I'd like to install the meter socket right on the outside of this connection/CT box and be done with it. City owned utility and installation, utility manager has no issues. Would be installed between the service disconnect and service point. Not sure if UL or NEC would come into play?

The generator connection must be on the load side of the service disconnect. It cannot be between the service point and the disconnect as you cannot isolate from the utility if you connect a generator between those two points.
 
transfer is handled between two mechanically interlocked breakers: main and gen. a ct termination mounting kit: sketch below:

In a nutshell, I'm just wondering if it's OK to use the same enclosure for
1. connecting cam lock cables and passing them thru in route to line side of gen bkr with:
2. CT termination & metering (both commonly done with same enclosure & OK with utility).
Sorry for the confusion, rough sketch above should clarify what i'm proposing.
