More than one service disconnect is permitted, NEC 230.71; however an indoor and an outdoor service disconnect does not meet the grouping requirements of NEC 230.72.
Another issue...yes, as service conductors and feeders are not permitted in the same raceway.
Also, I think a set of load calculations are in order as there may be over 100 amps of load being carried on service conductors rated at 100 amps.

Is this residential or commercial? The 100 amp label on the meter cabinet stands for what exactly?
I hope the answer is residential.
I assumed it was residential.
If not residential, my previous posts are embarrassing.
What is the ampere rating of the proposed service?It is implying that the meter can is rated for 100A
This is a thread with a lot going on but it isn't getting enough attention.

Alrighty then....in your best estimate, is 100 amps sufficient?
Out of idle curiosity, do you normally receive such drawings for approval with residential services?
We never get drawings or load calcs. What we get is a permit for a 200 amp panel. Now and then there's a 400 amp panel. Upon site visit, an inspector might request load calcs.Most of the time we do but missing was the load calc for the dwelling, panel schedules and a drawing that had more detailed info.

And that 100 amp service in your drawing.....is it too small based on the two main disconnects and that's why you want load calcs?
Getting information out of you is not that easy. You can have a lawyer present during this questioning.
