I am involved in a project that is experiencing multiple problems with terminology (too many interested parties who are not engineers or electricians). I need to use the right words, or else I will become the cause of confusion. My question is related to a service transformer and a main service switchboard that will both be outdoors, along with all loads. Since nothing "enters" a building, is it still correct to use the phrase, "service entrance conductors" to describe the wires between the transformer and the switchboard?
