I am installing a small subpanel on my utility pole. It is a four space, main lug, sub panel. This panel will be on the same panel as the meter.
The meter is a 200a disconnect with "Triple tap." Similar to Milbank U9647N-RL-200

It has a 200a main breaker that feeds a triple lug. One of those lugs feeds my house, one feeds my barn, and the third will feed this subpanel on the utility pole. From the subpanel I am running a 20a GFCI outlet and possibly another circuit on the pole later on.
My question is about the neutral and ground. Should they be bonded inside the subpanel or split? I know if it was a separate structure, the would be split, but since it is on the same pole and literally about 10" from the meter, I did not know.
