Why is there a pedestal in my yard and not my neighbor’s yard?

During the design phase, the engineering team determines the most efficient way to provide service. They select the least intrusive intersecting rear property point as the general location for a pedestal which is often in the center of four property corners. From that point, the pedestal location is thoughtfully identified based on the following factors:

  1. Existing underground utilities.
  2. Location of the underground conduit that will feed the pedestal.
  3. Proximity to other pedestals.
  4. Landscape features and/or obstructions.
  5. Ease of accessibility for crews to construct and maintain the network.
