Can electrical conduits from utility xfmr to building share same trench with natural gas and cold water pipes? I would say yes but not 100% sure :)

Sure, if you dig a wide enough trench. Around here the utility providers have separation requirements. This can be accomplished by staggering both elevation and horizontal separation.

What is minimum separation (ft) between two different system conduits? Or this depends on AHJ?
