I've got to install a new mast for my house I bought. I'm allowed to do all the electrical and it needs to be up to current MN code (follows the NEC). I have the most recent copy of the NEC but can't find a whole lot of specifics on mast installation.
Has to be tall enough so snow doesn't accumulate, is there a recommendation for height? It needs to be secure, what is the best way to do this for a plastic tube sticking through your roof? Guy wires?
Does the wire need to be continuous from the meter to the service point? If I can, what splicing is acceptable?
What Guage do I need for standard one phase residential?
If there is not enough wire from the line, do they have to re-string a whole new one, or just splice an extra length on?
I'm not a retard, just trying to do it right but can't seem to find explicit information easily, the NEC is a mess imo
