Electrical conduit &
transformer setting
The underground side of a development's power: primary & secondary conduit runs, pull boxes, pedestals, transformer pads & the transformers themselves, set to the utility's drawing. We put it in the ground. The utility & your electrician make the connections.

One corridor, one crew
In a new subdivision the low-pressure sewer main, the water main & the electrical conduit all run the same corridor. When three contractors dig it on three different weeks, the third one finds the first one's pipe the hard way. We install all three on one schedule, with one inspector walking behind us.
Subdivisions & developments
Primary conduit from the utility's point of connection, transformer pads & transformers at each location on the drawing, secondary conduit & pedestals to each lot. Street crossings bored, not cut.
Pump stations & grinder panels
Conduit from the pedestal or meter to the control panel, pull strings in, stubbed & capped so the electrician's rough-in is a clean day. Part of every grinder pump install & lift station we build.
New homes, shops & barns
Service conduit from the transformer or pedestal to the meter base, bored under the drive where the drive is already poured.
How the hand-offs work
- Utility: designs the layout, inspects our conduit & pads, pulls & terminates its cable, energizes.
- Us: trench or bore, conduit, pull boxes, pedestals, pads, grounding, transformer setting, backfill, as-builts.
- Electrician: wires from the meter in, including the grinder pump panel's dedicated circuit.
We schedule the three so nobody waits on a hole.
Sewer, water & power, then every lot
We red-line the low-pressure sewer design, install the sewer mains, water mains, electrical conduit, transformers & pedestals, handle the inspection approvals & coordinate the other contractors. Then we set the grinder pump system, water service & electrical service for every unit in the development.
- One trench corridor
- One inspector schedule
- No crossed utilities
- Bores under new pavement
- As-builts you can use
- Lot connections by the same crew

Are you electricians?
We're plumbers & excavators. We install the conduit, pull boxes, pedestals, pads & transformers per the utility's design. The utility pulls & terminates its cable, & a licensed electrician wires the house or the pump panel. We coordinate all of it.
Why hire the sewer contractor for conduit?
Because the sewer main, the water main & the electrical conduit share the same corridor, the same trench crew & the same inspector. One mobilization instead of three, & nobody digs through yesterday's pipe.
Do you set the transformers themselves?
Yes. Pad, grounding ring & conduit stubs to the utility's spec, then the transformer set in place with our equipment. The utility energizes it.
Can conduit be bored instead of trenched?
Yes. Under streets, driveways & finished lots we directionally bore the conduit, up to 5-inch pipe.
Do you run power to grinder pump panels?
The conduit, yes: from the pedestal or meter to the panel location, so the electrician has a clean run. On a grinder pump install we handle that in the same visit.
