The code book that applies to your house is different from the code book 
that applies to commercial buildings and is different than what applies 
to what power companies can do.

For example, commercial buildins have to use conduit, your house does 
not.  Power companies get away with using smaller guage wire for a given 
amperage.  Code does not require that the power companie's delivery to 
your house be in conduit as it runs through the ground.
