Some thoughts for a 70E compliant residential service:
Consider if I put a main fused disconnect or circuit breaker adjacent to a MLO load center.
Then to work in the load center I would:
1. Do the proper PPE
2. Open the main
3. Remove the MLO cover
4. Voltage test L-L and L-G
Then if no voltage I can remove my PPE and do work.
So, in this case the only time I would need a power company disconnect is to work on the service disconnect.
