Section/Paragraph: 230.28(B)
Revised Text
230.28 Service Masts as Supports.
....
(B) Attachment.
Feeder and/or branch-circuit conductors shall not be attached to a mast between a weatherhead or the end of the conduit and a coupling where the coupling is located above the last point of securement attachment of the mast to the building or other structure or is located above the building or other structure.
Substantiation
The word securement is obscure. The use of "attachment of the mast" uses a common word and explicitly differentiates the "attachment of the mast" from "conductor shall not be attached to the mast".
The last phrase "or is located above the building or other structure" is unclear as to whether it refers to the "conductor attach", "coupling", or "mast attachment". In all these cases it would appear to be redundant.
