    What is an edison box? Do you mean a meter enclosure?

    If so there are many different ways to do what you want. Typical would be a 320/400A meter pan with dual lugs on the load side, each to a main disconnect.

    Your electrician should be able to explain all this and how he is planning on doing it.
