[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 486736, member: 17152"] I would concur with Sidey, as this would be my approach also, minimising your trench work. so from the metering intake you’d place said external enclosure adjacent. Then dig a trench to shed. Then dig a trench to house. Along this trench you would dig a Sweeping bend to bore pump. Lay a black duct 50mm dia in trenches for each separate feed that’s 3 ducts for clarification. Make sure you put a suitable draw cord in each duct run for pulling cable through at later date. Trench should be a minimum of 500mm deep. Back fill with appropriate aggregate and sand, remember to place ‘electrical warning tape 100mm above duct. You will then have adequate trenching for your electrician to pull cables. Reminder all bends to be sweeping not tight. [/QUOTE]
