We follow a meticulous step-by-step process to ensure durability, compliance, and safety in every underground electrical installation:
Initial Site Assessment & Planning
Before any digging begins, we thoroughly assess your property and power requirements to determine the best underground conduit path. This includes evaluating existing utility lines such as gas, water, and sewer to prevent interference, analyzing soil conditions, and trenching feasibility to ensure a secure installation.
Utility Locating & Permits
We coordinate with utility companies to locate and mark existing underground services to prevent any disruptions. We also secure necessary permits from local authorities to ensure compliance with Arizona’s electrical codes.
Trenching & Conduit Installation
Our team uses professional-grade trenching equipment to dig precise pathways for underground conduits. We install high-quality PVC, rigid metal, or HDPE conduits based on your project’s needs. Proper conduit selection ensures long-term durability and protection against moisture, soil movement, and external damage.
Wire Pulling & Electrical Feeds Installation
Once the conduits are securely installed, we pull appropriately sized electrical wires through them to ensure reliable power distribution. This includes high-voltage power feeds for buildings and commercial sites, low-voltage wiring for security, lighting, and communication systems, and dedicated circuits for EV chargers, pools, and other specialty electrical needs.

System Testing & Code Compliance
Before completing the job, we conduct electrical continuity and insulation resistance tests, load testing to confirm proper voltage and amperage delivery, and a thorough verification to ensure compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Once the system passes all required tests and approvals, we backfill the trench to its original condition.
We meet Arizona’s strict safety and compliance regulations, ensuring reliable and code-compliant electrical work.
Our professionals are skilled in underground conduit installation, wiring, troubleshooting, and system upgrades.

Common types include PVC, HDPE, and metal conduits. PVC is lightweight and corrosion-resistant, HDPE offers flexibility, and metal conduits provide robust protection. The choice depends on specific project needs.
Depth requirements vary based on conduit type and local codes. For instance, PVC conduit typically needs to be buried at least 18 inches deep. Always consult local regulations for precise guidelines.
Regular inspections are recommended to check for signs of wear or damage. Ensure the area remains free from excessive moisture and that no landscaping activities disturb the conduit.
