disconnect
The meter is NEVER a disconnect point, and here, if you were to break the meter seal to remove it, you would be eligible for a $10,000 fine. The disconnect, whatever type it is, MUST be adjacent to the meter with the minimum distance between it and the meter. Here we usually use a combination meter socket and circuit breaker panel with a main breaker. But if the situation requires it, then separate devices are used, but the main breaker's position never changes.
