Below are some images with a schematic.
I need to come out of the house about 5' off the ground, drop down into the ground and then cut across the yard at least 35 feet. I've been reading posts on this board for a while and I have some ideas of what I need to do. I just have a few questions.
1.) From the schematic, what is the best path ? location B to D would be the easiest, but C to D would require less digging. (I would like to reroute a water valve to location C, so this may not be the ideal location for both power and water access.
2.) As I understand it, the wire must be buried 18" deep if inside conduit and 24" if not. (It's also a good idea to place some "Caution buried electrical wire" tape above the wire before covering.
3.) I'm thinking 10-3 and a 30 amp 220V breaker will be enough to run small power tools and lights. Is this correct ?
4.) Will I need a "ground" rod at the shed and what kind of panel box should I get for the shed ?
5.) What size PVC conduit would be enough for 10-3 exterior wire ? (I'll assume the sections must be cemented together.)
