Customer has a 1.25 conduit that goes under eve of house. The home has a metal bracket for the point of attachment raising the drip loop above 12'. We are installing a new meter loop and service. Does the new meter loop service mast need to be installed? Or could we still use the metal point of attachment at hone?

The pipe s loops under EVE because we can't penetrant up,. Would it be required rigid conduit.
Is the weatherhead above the point of attachment as required? If not, you have to do what you have to do. You have to go through the eve and out the roof above the eve. (I'm assuming this is how it is.) You can use 1-1/4 EMT because you won't be using it as a mast. You can use the original point of attachment to the side of the eve assuming it meets specs.
