Since he is in Arizona this service must meet EUSERC requirements. Among other things you are not allowed to bring underground service conductors directly into a standard meter socket. An approved underground pull section must be provided for the utility to terminate their service conductors. The parts to build this service would cost more that purchasing a readily available combination service entrance device which has a pull section, meter socket and load center in one box.
We do things a little different here in the West compared to the rest of the Country.
