How about 230.28. I'm guessing here with out back-up, but emt fittings listed for service masts???

230.28 Service Masts as Supports.
Where a service mast is used for the support of service-drop conductors, it shall be of adequate strength or be supported by braces or guys to withstand safely the strain imposed by the service drop. Where raceway-type service masts are used, all raceway fittings shall be identified for use with service masts. Only power service-drop conductors shall be permitted to be attached to a service mast.

Still, a mast is a mast.

Yes, but the mast does not support the service drop. The strut does. Take the conduits off the assembly, and the service drop stays put. The mast just also happens to be attached to the strut as well.

A mast attached to a wall, next to an eyebolt attached to the same wall, is also a violation?:roll:
