Re: service cable
Your local utility company may not allow the SE cable to be covered.
Also, it will have to be protected from physical damage....IF you cover it.
Check with your local AHJ, that's the best way.
Here, services cannot be concealed before the meter.

Once that cable is under the siding it has entered the building. The service disconnecting means is no longer "nearest the point of entrance".
