Electrical connection question
« on: August 09, 2017, 06:31:29 pm »
I am considering having my hot tub installed about 15 feet from my house. I would like to know what is the general code for burying the conduit? At what depth?

Type UF cable direct buried without conduit 24” deep
PVC conduit  18” deep
Rigid metal conduit 6” deep

I would strongly recommend conduit for the run.
