Underground or overhead conductors carry power from the transformer through a metering device to the building’s service disconnects. It includes the components that connect the utility-supplied wiring (the service lateral or service drop) to the service disconnect, excluding the utility’s metering equipment.

Overhead wires extend from a pole-mounted distribution transformer to  the building’s service entrance.

an instrument that is used by the utility company to measure  and record electrical energy consumed

A large cabinet or assembly of metal cabinets in which is  connected disconnecting switches, overcorrect protection devices (fuses  or circuit breakers), other protective devices, and instruments designed  to divide large amounts of electrical current into smaller amounts of  current used by electrical equipment.

Transforms supplied power  into usable voltages. Typically,  rated in kVA.

Power transformer that has a secondary voltage that is less than its primary voltage.

Power transformer has a secondary voltage that is greater than its primary  voltage

Overcurent protection safeguards the building service or an individual circuit from excessive current flows
