The following is for a SF residence, our region is Midwest, Milwaukee to be specific....
Work at SAI (serving area interface, fiber meets copper) run sync tests, install jumpers.
Verify sync at serving terminal, clean contacts, create CIM helper if needed.
The drop wire from serving terminal to residence is a cat3, if not currently should be replaced.
If your drop is quad buried, a new temporary drop is laid on top of ground, a request for outside contractor to bury, generally 1-2 weeks.
A new NID should be installed (gel protector not ceramic) if needed on outside of residence.
A 10 gauge ground wire, with visible ground tag from NID to house ground.
In our area the NID is modified for an ATT branded jack install, (no line mod)
A BAN tag installed for identification.
A cat5e home run from NID to RG location, a drip loop where wire enters home.
Both NID and enter point should be BSEALed to prevent moisture and small insects from entry.
