It was the Apprentice’s 1st Install! 200 AMP Service Meter Pan + Disconnect Combo #electrician
What happens here
Begin by inserting the gray electrical conduit through the top entry point of the meter base. The apprentice is shown bending the conduit upwards as it's pushed into place. The goal is to ensure the conduit is straight and properly seated in the meter base. The instructor advises that the conduit connection will be tightened later, but before that, a mark needs to be made for a future hole.
Goal: Route and position the top electrical conduit for the 200 AMP service entrance.
