  • As mentioned with the other guy, 0 inches is the requirement to the top of the cable or raceway used. So at minimum, you’re allowed to be perfectly flush with the ground. Obviously you can and likely would go a little lower, although I don’t have any experience with trenching myself.



  • I looked up on google at one point what the minimum required depth for a cable running under a building is by NEC code. It told me it was 0 inches. I laughed and called it stupid, wtf do you mean 0 inches?? Upon further research, 0 inches is the correct answer, I felt real stupid after that -_-
