Does the public utility's responsibility end at:

None of the above. It ends at the input junction at the end of their
wiring. That includes the junction itself and the wiring back to the
pole.
The only thing they are responsible for on the customer side of the
junction is the meter itself.


That's how it is where I am located (in New Jersey). It may be different
where the OP is located, and maybe if the OP stated where he/she is located
and/or the electric utility company there, someone else here would know the
answer for his/her location.
