Laying the Electric Cable

Morning:

Today was a busy day. PUD arrived in force with junction box, transformer, and 400 foot of heavy electric cable. Also Garret's electrician, Scott, arrived with two conduits to be buried above the cable for use for land-line telephone and a security gate in case we decide to get one.

Junction box and cable: The beginning digging footage was from late yesterday, the rest is from today:


The Completed Junction Box

Afternoon:

About 2 pm Dan, Martin, and Brad dug the side trench that will carry the water line and electrical cable from the well head to the transformer box. Then They laid the water line and positioned the Transformer box.

The first part of the video shows the main electrical line being covered. Note the care with which Martin and Dan ensure the conduits are buried. The side trench and transformer box follow:
