A professional conduit installation requires meticulous attention to detail and a systematic approach to ensure safety and compliance.

1. Planning and Trenching: First, a detailed route is planned and marked, making sure to identify all existing utilities by contacting local services. The trench is then excavated to the required depth, which varies depending on the type of conduit and local electrical codes.

2. Laying and Joining: The conduit is laid in the trench and assembled. For PVC, sections are joined using solvent cement to create a permanent, watertight seal. For metallic conduit, threaded or compression fittings are used.

3. Backfilling and Compaction: Once the conduit is laid and has passed inspection, the trench is backfilled and compacted in layers to ensure stability and prevent the ground from settling later on.
