Yes, 3 joints. It's 60ft long till the 45* out by the front side walk and 14ft off the wall with the meter on it. Just under 1100 sq/ft.

I hope you had the power company run your underground service feeding your meter in conduit. If they have a fault in the cable their only option will be to jackhammer it up. Same thing with the buried phone drop.

Didn't worry about the underground feed. Odds of that happening are slim to none. Then again this is the internet so I am sure hours after posting, I will be hit with a zombie apocalypse and a velociraptor attack which will end just in time for the sharknado. Then everyone will point out "told you so".

PVC was ran under the slab incase the phone line needs to be replaced.

And I must say the color of the boat blends with the house quite nicely!

I'm a little jaded in the faulted secondary cable scenario due to the fact I was a lineman for 20 years and fixed thousands of ug faults where there was a lot of digging was involved. While it wasn't always the case, it seemed Murphy's law did like to land on faults where customers placed driveways and slabs over the cable. It could of been just my bad luck as I was the one who fixed them.

The risk of a faulted cable is most likely at the splice point if a temp meter pedestal was installed right next to the house during construction. If that was the case a splice was made from the temp meter location to where a second cable piece entered the house, usually 6' from the permanents meter location. If they had the temp service located near the road you are likely good as there would be no splice. If there was a problem they could cut an area of the slab out around the meter pipe and jet a 2" inch pipe under the slab and replace the cable that way.
