....dryer vent would cause some concern in regard to ambient. .....
Would 230.9(A) apply to this install?
How hot does a dryer get compared to how hot the weather gets? Besides, it may be a bath vent.
I doubt that a dryer vent will put out air warmer than the summertime temperature, especially if this is in direct sun in the afternoon.

the exception under 230.54 (C) may make it ok - although I can't see how it would have been impractical to locate the service head above the point of attachment unless it now violated the 3ft rule from the next window above.Yes. POA is above weatherhead. 230.54(C)

The reality probably is that the service was there before the drop from the street was installed so it really was the power company that created the violation. If I was changing the service I would get as close to practical without violating any other codes.
not a violation of 230.9(A) see the Exception below it
If poco puts in the POA after I am done, as they do here then I don't see 230.54(C) coming into play.
Forget about the dryer vent.
POCOs here don't do POAs. If we don't provide them, we get tagged.
Actually they may not do POA's here any more either. They use to but I haven't done an overhead in ages. :smile:
They still provide POA
