The heat dissipation device includes a conduit with a first end configured to be mounted to a first opening in a housing of the electrical meter socket. The heat dissipation device includes a vent cap to cover a second end of the conduit, and may include one or more optional apertures to dissipate heat from the electrical meter socket. The heat dissipation device can also include mesh or screen to keep insects out of the device. An electrical meter socket system is also presented, including the electrical meter socket a heat dissipation device and a connector to connect the device to an opening in a housing of the socket. A method is also presented, for dissipating heat from an electrical meter socket.
