It can go anywhere between the weatherhead and the service disconnect. 250.24(A)(1) Although some POCO"s don't allow the connection within their metering equipment.

you are not wrong! as Rob stated "from the point of attachment to the first disconnect" If there is no local requirement in force preventint it, you can conenct the Gr. electrode Cond., to the service neutral bar,
