Folks

I am about to dig a trench for the power cable for the new shed. The last 50 metres to the power meter is worring since I dont know where the existing power cable is or the telephone, and the digger op doesent want to start until we have an idea. Since the cables are on private property, there is no law to record where they are, so its dig blind basically.

It was suggested to me by a less than relaible sparky that I should dig a hole by hand at the power box and then follow the poly to determine direction. This seems a little dodgy to me, but at this stage is the best option.

Any sparkys out there have a method that they use?

Cheers
