Dwelling service conductors end in an outdoor, readily accessible emergency disconnect rated for the available fault current and marked in white letters at least 1/2 in high on red (NEC 230.85).
Local review: The outdoor emergency disconnect is a 2023 NEC requirement; confirm San Antonio's adopted NEC edition and CPS Energy's meter-disconnect rules before relying on it.
Every electrode present (water pipe, concrete-encased, ground ring, rod/pipe, plate, other listed) is bonded together; if none exist, install one or more (NEC 250.50).
