Define the Service Point. –
______________
Define the term Service Point.
Explanation of Solution
Discussion:
The point of connection between the facilities of serving utility’s supply and customer’s premises wiring is called the ‘service point’.
Refer to an article NEC 100, the service point is in the meter base for a typical underground service. The service point is at the connection where the premises wiring is connected to utility service drop conductors for an overhead device. The electrical utility is responsible for the conductors and equipment on supply side of service point where the customer’s premises wiring is responsible for the equipment and conductors on load side of service point.
Conclusion:
Thus, the term service point is defined.
