What Conduit Size Do I Need for an Underground Service?
The electrical, communications or plumbing designer should specify the conduit for the actual cable or pipe.
Conduit size depends on the cable or pipe, draw length, bend radius, future capacity, protection requirements and the relevant standard or network-owner specification. The excavation crew should not choose a size from the surface crossing alone.
Confirm the final conduit quantity, diameter, draw rope and termination details before the bore or trench is booked. This prevents a civil path that is too small for the next trade.
