sourcing meter test blocks

[Fulthrotl]

i'm hating myself.... i found some 100 amp test blocks for sale on
the net, new old stock.... and i lost the link..... now, i need some.... :rant:

these are the smaller ones from the 1970's, that were used in zinsco gear
a lot..... about a third smaller than the millbank stuff that is currently used
for 200 amp 3 phase meters.

does anyone have a place i might find them at? i remember the ones i saw
were in the $30~$40 range, which is very good on pricing for these things.

anyone?

What is a meter test block?

the test blocks on switchgear or a service panel that lets the poco
isolate the meter socket from the line and the load....

this is what the current stuff looks like....

i had to buy a spec'd. 240 delta 200 amp surface mount
panel from millbank, with a fuse block for the main, and
test blocks.

my cost was $1,900 and it had stab in breakers. :jawdrop:
