REQUIREMENTS
Install Requirements In Approved Utility Territories
Depending on the territory, you may need to coordinate with the utility for behind-the-meter installation.
-
Utility Install
Only an authorized utility technician can pull the billing meter and install the MSA.
-
Joint Install Required
Installer's licensed electrician can install the MSA, but a utility tech must be on-site to remove and reinsert the billing meter.
-
Installer Allowed
Sometimes called a 3rd Party Install by utilities: A licensed electrician on-staff or contracted by the installer may pull the billing meter and install the MSA without utility coordination.
How To Install Behind The Utility Billing Meter
- Step 1
Remove the utility meter
- Step 2
Install the ConnectDER MSA
(NO SPECIAL TOOLS REQUIRED) - Step 3
Reattach the utility meter
IslandDER™ does not have a neutral wire. Product shown is the ConnectDER Solar Meter Socket Adapter. All our MSAs follow the same simple 3-step process for at-the-meter installs. In some areas, only utility technicians can install MSAs in the utility meter socket. For information about installing in a separate customer-owned socket, contact us.
