Table 300-5 Column 3
A contractor installed a two inch PVC/Sched.40 conduit (direct buried) to get 480/3PH power to a small (2-10HP pumps) waste water pump station located 500FT from a school's panel board. The conduit is 24" below grade. The conduit extends from the school, under a parking lot and then under a soccer field to the pump station.
1. As long as the conduit is rated for direct burial and it is 24" below grade, this complies with NEC. Correct?
2. Does anyone have a way to permanently mark the path of the conduit?
I just have heart burn about the possibility of someone digging and hitting the conduit in the future.
