Underground utility installation requires pre-planning to ensure a safe and efficient build. The planning process must carefully examine and evaluate the location, and use, to determine the type of utility to be placed in the corridor or line location. EPCOR Technologies provides underground residential development services including installing underground electrical conduit, duct installation and patch panel installation.
Underground utility services which have facilities buried at a depth less than 2.5 metres below surface grade are called shallow utilities. This includes residential underground electrical service, cable television and communication utilities. These may be bundled in a joint use trench, where all utilities are placed in one trench rather than two.
Considerations for the trenching and digging should be coordinated during the planning phase, including specific requirements for conduit installation. Challenges such as installation of shallow utilities in the winter and outdoor conduit installation need to be considered in the design and build phase.

A unique feature of the park is its antique streetcar system, which featured substation electrical equipment with a mercury vapour rectifier. An upgrade was required to preserve the functionality and safety of the system, ensuring adequate power and preventing against rectifier failure. Our design team review revealed additional upgrades to the substation building structure and heating and ventilation system for which EPCOR presented numerous options and helped to coordinate fixes.
