Re: [RE-wrenches] !000 volt wire for trench-buried extended runs - what type?

You will probably use PVwire. As far as I am aware it will be your least expensive option. Get it in aluminum, direct-burial rated if you want. Or pre-sleeved in PVC conduit. Matt On Tue, May 17, 2016 6:52 pm, Howard Arey wrote: > Good day, wrenches. > > > > > I am installing four dual axis t

[RE-wrenches] 1000V underground wire

I'm with Chris Mason on this one. Teck 90 cable is great stuff. No more screwing around with rigid PVC conduit and solvent glue in the bottom of a trench. No more backbreaking wire pulls. It is impervious to almost anything, direct burial, concrete encasement, wet location, whatever. Just roll i

[RE-wrenches] 1000 volt wire for trench-buried extended runs - what type?

HI Scot, I”ve pretty cavalier on lots of things. But for this, I would use conduit and wire. I just think the added protection, being able to pull out wire in case etc. I do like the armored cable that was discussed, but that stuff is expensive and the ends are quite expensive. I buy my

[RE-wrenches] Stolen modules, what to do?

I was at a site today that had four out of the 50 modules removed recently by thieves. Can anyone recommend a good alternative to the Unirac hardware? I mean like tamperproof security hardware? It has T-bolts with top clamps utilized. Of course it is a ground mount and is easily accessible. Jer
