u/Delicious-Day-8797

I posted last night about options to secure my service mast. I've got that part figured out, but I'm running into another issue.

The spot that the engineer specified for the meter has a roof purlin running the entire distance of the wall, so I can't just notch it out and go through it.

I have a buddy who can bend 2.5" rigid conduit for me. Would it be kosher/normal to just bend around the 8" of roof overhang and go up from there?

Thanks for any input

I'm putting together the service mast for a shop I just had built.

If I run it straight up this stud on the outside, I'll run into a 2.5" thick beam at the top, which I can't cut or notch.

Is it normal/acceptable to put a 45-degree offset at the top to run it around the edge of the roof, instead of through it?

I've attached some pictures to reference. Hopefully, I've explained my dilemma well enough. The diagram is from the electrical company.

Any recommendations or alternative methods would be appreciated.
