Did the code change for Service disconnect location is the disconnect required to be located outside or inside? From 2020 to 2023?

Starting with the 2020 code, one and two family dwellings must have either the service disconnect or an emergency disconnect outside. See 230.85.

230.70 seemingly addresses all series whereas 230.85 actually covers the emergency disconnect for one and two family. If you elect to make the emergency disconnect your service disconnect then 230.70 applies to it.
