Hey Gang! We've been super busy over here at the site getting all the final things organized and ready for insulation and drywall and man we were NOT ready. One of the reasons it's taking us so long is because we don't want to forget ANYTHING once that insulation/drywall goes up. How fun is it to be back with Joel installing this insane Meter setup and digging for our electrical service! Thanks for watching as always, we've got some bangers coming so keep your eyes open!

Whether it’s code required or not as a home inspector and apprentice electrician I always highly recommend an expansion coupling below the meter.

@fixitfixitfixit 8 ай бұрын

in the future, make sure you run a pull rope through a conduit made for internet before you glue it together, will make running lines much easier. When it comes time to run a network wire, you pull the network line through the conduit with the pull rope along with a new pull rope. Electric lines of that size are stiff and can be pushed through, fiber line not so much. For now i might suggest some fishing line attached to a small ball and some compressed air, push that through then with the fishing line pull a pull rope through it. Mind you i have 200ft fiber line in the ground connecting my startlink mounted on a 65ft tower to my house so I've used the pull rope before.

At the end near the road, I would have buried a 2.5 box over the pre-dug line for the utility connection. So you only have to dig up 6 inches, remove the box, then presto. As long as you don't have to drive over that area until the utilities are hooked up.

@MIGHTYX2010 8 ай бұрын

Great video, good information! In case people try to copy and repeat... For tracer ribbon you actually want to install that up the vertical riser pipe and wrap around a foot or two of it at ground level or maybe so that you could just see some of it otherwise nobody knows it's there so there will be no way to detect it. Detectable marking tape (tracer wire / ribbon) is used for locators not metal detectors. Therefore you have to energize it. Also another pro tip: swing the house of the mini x when using the blade up against the picket fence so your boom, stick and bucket can be tucked away neatly. 😊 Good work guys Hope this info helps you for further videos.

@walnutcontractors5661 5 ай бұрын

@MIGHTYX2010 5 ай бұрын

@@walnutcontractors5661 You can it's just way more expensive and you're putting two wires in the ground. I use 18 gauge or 20 gauge single copper wire but that's a little expensive too so I like underground detectable tracer tape. Plus the tape has words on it so if you're installing gas it's pretty important to let people know there's gas underground. Usually you would bury 1 to 2 ft and then lay down the detectable / tracer tape with the words gas on it. Then continue burying the rest of the way flush with the ground. This way when you start digging if you hit the tape you know within a footer to the gas pipe is below the tape so you never hit the gas. 💪

Paul, I'm not sure what the code requirements are there, but either way you may want to consider installing an expansion joint in the conduit vertical riser below the meter socket.

Very interesting. The last time I built here in Georgia, the power company ran the line from the street to the meter. I am rather surprised that you guys did not have to have that conduit inspected before covering it. Also, here I have never been allowed to put more than one type of service in the same trench. One time I was using a 36 inch bucket and I was going to put the various utilities in the groove made by the teeth. I thought it was a cool idea as that would ensure that they were all evenly spaced apart. That prick of an inspector would not even let me backfill and bury within the area where the ditch was. He insisted everything had to have its own ditch. They would have been exactly one foot apart all the way (150 ft. ). Would have made locating later so easy.

I did my 27 ft of trenching by hand - only had to be 20" down (so the PVC was 18" below grade). That was for 100 amp subpanel in my garage and 200 amp upgrade in my basement. Old main panel became that subpanel. This is cool seeing a killer garage build. The house build will be even better too! I'm glad they are getting solar too.

When you terminate the conduit on your new pole, make sure the open end of the conduit is LOWER than then termination at the house, AND make sure there's some waterproofing on it, so that it doesn't get a lot of water in it. And since the pole side will be lower, when that conduit does fill with water, it'll drain on the pole side, not into your meter box. Ask me how I know.

I don't disagree, but I wonder if it's really needed these days? Being hardwired is great and reduces interference, but considering wifi speeds, except for the most data intensive systems (home security cameras, video backups, home nas, etc) most computers, phones, gaming consoles, should work fine with a decent wifi setup. Although having a network closet couldn't hurt, just thinking the expense may not be worth it. Thoughts?

@@sterlingmullett6942PoE availability is a lot better for fixed network appliances like door bells, cams, even lighting than wifi and having to recharge batteries. My recommendation would be to pull a conduit all the way around to under that stair well where the switch board is going to be and then land your WAN connection there into a network rack. Then all the structured wiring can land there too and make it nice and neat. Just keep any ELV wiring at least 50mm away from LV wiring and it’ll be sweet.

@@sterlingmullett6942 While you can connect most devices with wifi, interference is a thing that you need to plan ahead for.

Old ranchers trick when pulling those stakes, use a chain and a short section of post or other, hook the chain to the bumper of your vehicle and over the top of the post set at an angle, it till cantilever the stake out.

An expansion coupling also makes it much easier when entering meter equipment. I hope Joel catches this before wire gets put it

So cool to see progress. This reminds me of me and my dad running the secondary underground this house he built in 1980.......it was also 3" conduit to a future new pole....so this brings back very cool memories. But we hand dug it 😁.....you guys are way smarter than we were, but there were not small excavators in 1980! Always looking forward to the next vid.

The PVC backer is a great idea. One improvement on it for a future installation is to put rabbets on the sides and bottom for the siding to slide into. This helps with expansion and contraction of the siding.
