Murray has been the standard for quality and innovation for meter mounting equipment for over half a century. The heart of our offering continues to be the HQ lever bypass socket. The basic design of this socket has not changed since its original inception in 1956 making this a solid, time-proven design. We continue to offer the HQ at a competitive price even when faced with lower cost and lower quality competition. The bypass blade for every HQ is rated for 320 amps making every one of our sockets “Heavy Duty”. Most utilities will not hook up to a meter socket unless it is approved by them. These approvals can change without notice. Before purchasing or installing this meter socket, confirm approval with your local utility. Some utilities do not maintain lists, so just because a utility is not listed below does not mean that this device cannot be used on their network.
