Hello All,
long time follower of this forum.....first time poster!
We are doing the owner builder thing in the Perth hills on a 4 acre block. We are currently having out power put in on the block, with our electrician putting in new underground power supply from front gate to the shed. I was given the go ahead Thursday last week to fill in the trench.
Today i though i would pull some of the rock out of the trench in readiness for the bobcat guy to fill it in tomorrow. I found the following while walking along the trench.
Little or no glue on some joins

I would expect an electrician to do the job RIGHT the first time around for the amount of money he is charging!. As mentioned he gave me the go ahead to fill this trench in.
Could someone clarify that the conduits (telephone and power) should be at either side of the tench? Also the length of the power run is 135m he recommended putting in an 80 amp supply, he has run 2 lengths of :
APEC 2013 X-90 ELECTRICAL CABLE 0.6/1kv 35 SQ mm CU
Is this cable what i was quoted for?
The electrician doesn't come across as overly confident in what he was doing... and i am not really happy with the job he has done.....any advice much appreciated!
Cheers,
Tism
