Here I'm cutting some tree roots that the back-hoe operator couldn't dig out. Big difference in the weather, eh? It was a cold, rainy, soggy, just terribly crappy day. Ah well..the customer is always right...the customer is always right...the customer is always right...
The pump ran non-stop, trying to keep the water out of the hole so we could carefully dig around the cables, and remove the troublesome roots.
After we spread 3 buckets full of gravel and laid the concrete pad down, it wasn't a bad spot to work.
My partner, Backup, helps guide the new fiberglass enclosure over to the concrete pad.
A big improvement!
Yesterday was a might chilly out, so today we built a tent to stay warm and keep the cables and equipment dry while we cleaned them and worked on grounding the system. I know, I shoulda had my hardhat on.
Backup is carefully cleaning each cable, and the male and female sections of the termination point before putting them back together. It was still cold, but we had a little heater, and the flimsy tent kept the heat inside. At least until the wind started blowing, and we had to take the tent down.
