2 Position Meter Socket · 200A Main 200A Per Position · Overhead or Underground Right Side Entry BC Hydro Accepted · Hydel HC22RH-BC
Duplex meter base for 120/240V single-phase metering with a 200A main and 200A per position. Built for overhead or underground right-hand entry and BC utility applications, commonly used where two tenant or service positions are required in one enclosure.
What this product is for
The Hydel HC22RH-BC is a duplex meter base used for two-position electrical metering in residential and light commercial service installations. It is configured with a 200A main and 200A per position for overhead or underground right-hand entry in British Columbia applications.
Use for
Use for duplex, secondary suite, small multi-tenant, or other two-position service layouts where the serving utility accepts this style of BC Hydro Approved multi-position meter base. It is commonly selected for 120/240V single-phase, 3-wire services using 4-jaw meter positions.
Avoid for
Avoid for overhead-only layouts, left-hand entry requirements, or projects requiring a different utility-approved meter socket configuration. Do not assume utility acceptance without checking the local service guide and approved equipment list.
Best for
Best for electricians and contractors needing a Canadian-made duplex meter base with two 200A positions in one enclosure for BC service requirements. It helps reduce field coordination when the project specifically calls for overhead or underground right-hand entry.
Installed in
Typically installed on exterior building walls in residential, mixed-use, and light commercial service entrances. Exact mounting height, working clearance, and service arrangement depend on utility requirements and local code.
Why this product exists
This product provides two metering positions in a single assembly, simplifying service layouts where separate metered occupancies are needed. Compared with using separate single meter sockets, a duplex base can reduce wall space and streamline service equipment planning.
Compared with similar products
Compared with single-position meter sockets, this duplex unit supports two meter positions in one enclosure. Compared with left-hand or overhead/underground variants, this model is specifically intended for underground right-hand entry and BC suffix applications, so matching the exact part number matters at quoting and submittal stage. Alternate to Microlectric BDC2-VAHILBC
Typical buying guidance: multi-position meter bases are selected by utility territory, service type, entry direction, and amperage before price. Actual acceptance depends on installation conditions, utility standards, and local electrical code.
