As already explained, you can have the house connections for electricity and water outside the house or inside the house.
Advantage of the grey electricity box with meter at the property boundary: meter reading can be done without entering the property. Your presence is not necessary.
Advantage of the water connection with meter in a shaft at the property boundary: water for construction is available even without a special construction water connection. It is automatically frost-proof installed.
Connections outside the house have the advantage, by the way, that your house cannot be demolished without the connections being disconnected by the utility providers and reconnected expensively. Admittedly, this is not relevant for everyone. For us, it was an advantage because we demolished an existing building before starting new construction and were able to keep the old connections.
Connections and meters inside the house may be convenient in old age
