ABSTRACT:
An electric meter base bracket apparatus and system. Embodiments include a meter bracket installed between studs of a dwelling or structure having. The bracket includes several holes to install the bracket to the studs as well as feed-through holes for wiring to the dwelling. Bolts are included on the bracket to attach directly to the meter base. A hole can be cut through the siding so that the meter base and the bracket can connect. In dwellings having brick, the meter base is typically set further from the studs due to spacing left between the brick and the studs. As such, the invention further includes an extension that connects directly to the bracket on one side and to the meter base on the other side. An alternative embodiment of the meter base bracket includes a variable size feature.
