This is easy... Explain to your customer that you do not trench and you have to run cable across the yard.
Lay the cable out and tell them to bury it. I tell my customers to bury the cable buy placing a shovel in the sod and just cutting down far enough to get under the sod. Then stuff in the wire. This technique does not apply if the customer: Runs horses as lawn mowers. Uses one of those 'aerating' machines. discs the yard (yes, this has happened) Have 'digging' dogs... or Black labs (black labs LOVE outdoor cable) I allow for one splice for free for the above. Additional trips cost money. ryan On Thu, Jun 10, 2010 at 8:13 AM, Robert West <robert.w...@just-micro.com>wrote: > Other than renting or buying a small trenching machine (That I'm sure I'd > use to slice every cable and natural gas/water/sewage line within 20 feet > of > me the first time I use it) I'm interested in seeing if there is a tool > that will let a person (Or corporation) push low voltage cable down below > the sod.
