Meter socket dilemma

[brittle]

I need a replacement meter socket. The lid of the enclosure says SB Ancor, or SIB Ancor. Googled it and nothing came up.

Just trying to avoid removing the flush mounted enclosure, galvanized riser and all the other stuff.

Any info on this company or suggestions of a workaround are welcomed.

I just googled ' anchor meter sockets' lots of info.

You should check with your POCO and electrical inspector to see if replacing only the guts is acceptable.

Start thinking like a plumber. Change out the whole service!

The interior of most meter cans is quite universal, even among different manufacturers, for the same type and amp rating of socket. No drilling or tapping required, most of the time. I have swapped out interiors on weekend emergency calls, but most all other times it calls for a new meter can or maybe even a new service.

In the mean time you may try Damitol to help with the headaches.

Almost forgot the most important thing.... the Anchor meter sockets now feature the T&B name on the lid instead.

Spoke with T&B. They shut the product down.

Thank you for all your suggestions and info!
