Can you use aluminum service cable to feed a sub panel?
Yes, as long as it has the necessary ampacity for the load and is properly fastened at each terminal. For example, we have a 4/0 aluminum cable feeding our 200 A subpanel 120 feet away.
Exterior electrical service should be 3 feet away from what?
Windows that can be opened.
What is min working space in front of 240V panel?
Three feet clearance is needed in front of electrical service equipment.
Exterior electrical service wires should be at least 3 feet away from?
CEC - any window that has the capacity to be opened.The exterior electrical service wires should be at least 3 feet away from any part of any window that is able to be opened.
Should a 2 AWG copper wire be used to feed a 125 amp sub panel located 125 feet from main panel?
No, the conductor is too small. The feeder to a 120/240 volt sub panel should be a 1/0 copper or a 2/0 aluminium conductor. This size conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 125 amps for 125 feet on a 240 volt system. ACWU 90 (Armoured Cable Wet location Underground 90 degree C). ACWU 90 cable is code approved for direct burial and is used in many projects as an underground service distribution feeder. Aluminium is much cheaper than copper for this type of installation.

How long is the anchor cable for a flagpole 24 feet high which is 10 feet away from the base of its anchor cable 25 feet 26 feet 30 feet or 34 feet?
Using Pythagoras' theorem it is 26 feet
What size wire do you need to run overhead to a 50 amp service five hundred feet away?
For that distance I would run AWG # 3 copper and install a sub-panel.
What wire size is used to make service connection from a 200 amp service panel to a 40 amp service panel 150 feet away?
8 AWG copper is rated for 40 amps. Over 150 ft, at maximum current, the voltage drop would be about 3.76 volts. Using 6 AWG would have a voltage drop of 2.36 volts with the same 40 amps.
