Before we contracted our builder, our electrician laid telstra conduit (20 to 25mm ?) in the same trench as our electricity.
I got a call from the company that does the phone lines for my builder. The company is heq.com.au.
They said that since our house and telstra pit are just over 60 metres apart, they are unable to use the conduit as they need to lay a thicker cable. They say they will trench it out again and lay 'cable-in-trench' without conduit.
Does anyone know if this is correct, or has any documentation about this? I would of course prefer to avoid this.
What happens when NBN fibre comes to our neighbourhood in the future, can we use the existing conduit, or have to retrench again?
I just want to get some info together for when I call them up to ask the same questions.
