| reply to razambon Re: [northeast] Fiber to House Line Replacement
The drops from the vault to the house that I have seen appear to only be about 6-8" under the top layer of soil without conduit. I have usually seen a short (12-16") conduit stub on the riser near the house to keep the weed whackers from beating the cable up.
Some of the contractors I have seen running the fiber use a modified spade to just cut a small slit in the ground (6-8" deep) and then just drop the raw fiber in the slit. Not sure this is what Verizon specs, but I have seen this a number of times!
