TV-PG
The process starts with borrowing a mini excavator and conduit for trenching a 220-foot underground run for a secondary electric service. A three-inch PVC conduit is installed under the slab to the utility room. Digging presents challenges, especially with rocks, as the team aims for the frost line depth. Dry weather affects the digging, and heavy equipment brings back childhood memories. The trench is backfilled with stone dust, and the project awaits the utility company for installation.
