How would you meter this?

I'm working on a system with three SMA inverters on a 208V 3 phase service. Each inverter will feed a breaker contacting two of the phases. The AHJ wants metering before the interconnect; would I run the output of each SB through its own meter?

    Would you not install a 3 phase meter socket (and panel, as needed, where needed) and let the utility intall its own revenue meter? (which they may charge you for).

    Put in a subpanel before the interconnection and output one 3 phase circuit to the interconnection point (assuming your interconnection point can have a breaker this large)
