A friend of mine bought a house and one of the things that the home
inspector noted was some wear or damage to the insulation on the service
entrance cable on the outside of the house that runs down to the meter. .
. ,

But, my question is..., If the only issue is some minor cracking or wear
in the service entrance cable insulation, is there a way to just repair
the insulation? I assume that it is gray in color, so is there some type
of insulation repair product that can be applied that is made for this
type of situation -- possibly gray in color so it doesn't look bad?

I went to look at the Service Entrance Cable today and I took some photos.
The cable has two distinct damaged areas as shown in the two photos below.
I also took a photo of the meter but I decided not to post it since it is
not my house and the photo shows the meter number etc. . . . ,

Here are the photos of the two damaged areas on the Service Entrance
Cable:

Oops, I'm not sure that the links above worked. Here is another try of
posting the two photos:
