Testimonials
The ConnectDER Meter Socket Adapter is easy to Install and even easier to Design with. It helps out especially with PV systems that are too large to interconnect with backfeed breakers and projects where standard line side taps are not allowed or possible. It made plenty of challenging projects a lot smoother and helped to avoid replacing numerous Combination Service Entrance Panels.
Using the ConnectDER Meter Socket Adapter saved us a lot of install time, money and pulled hair. The ConnectDER team provides all the support needed, hears our feedback and upgrades their product to perfection.

ConnectDER products work as a great solution for our team, especially with good home panels but they are full of breakers.
Super easy install with these meter collars. Even can get them in the Amp rating required for your system size.
What stands out the most to me is circumventing the need for service upgrades. Starting all the way at the beginning of our process, we can create a better value proposition for homeowners. In almost every case, they would gladly take an MSA instead of an upgrade.
I have been using the Connectder since its release and have been very happy with the results. Using MSA has allowed us to do less MPU's, which helps us streamline our projects to PTO. In our market there are some tough derate breakers to source, having MSA as an option allows us to skip the searching phase and continue with installation and at a cheaper price. What we like best about Connectder is its ease of install. Our guys have it done in about 20 minutes, the utility plugs on the meter and it's done. We are happy with our experience of Connectder.
