Why use a 2" to 1-1/4" reducer?? Why not just use a 2" hub on the meter socket?

No. It would simply be a raceway for the service conductors. But I've seen plenty of OH services with a POA that is not the pipe, and 2" or 2?" rigid was used anyway. Seems a waste of $ then.

What he said.
Our POCO will ONLY attach to the mast here. There was a mad time in the late 80's when PVC (!) was allowed (and yes, they attached to it) for resi.
I used 2" rigid when I did my service upgrade back then and the POCO crew asked me why I didn't use PVC.
I think that has changed since.... wonder how many "saggin services" it took before they woke up?

Good question, I don't know but you can bet I'll ask.
P.S. Maybe the meter base for smaller Services won't accept the 2" hub. I am just throwing this out, I still don't know.
