Electric Conduit & Power Line Boring
Electric conduit boring installs underground duct banks and primary/secondary conduits for commercial sites, industrial plants, and utility programs — keeping power paths off surface until manholes and vaults are ready.
What Is Electric Conduit & Power Line Boring?
Electric conduit boring installs underground duct banks and primary/secondary conduits for commercial sites, industrial plants, and utility programs — keeping power paths off surface until manholes and vaults are ready.
How It Works
HDD pulls multiple PVC or HDPE ducts between vaults, pads, and switchgear. Bend radius and pull tension are calculated for heavy copper or cable pulls later. Concrete encasement may follow in open sections per spec.
Who Needs Electric Conduit & Power Line Boring?
- Electrical contractors on commercial TI projects
- Industrial expansions feeding new switchgear
- Utilities undergrounding distribution
Materials & Pipe Sizes
PVC Schedule 40/80, HDPE, and steel casing for road crossings — 2 inch through 6 inch common, larger on substation work.
Project Scale
Parking lot duct banks to mile-class feeders on engineered routes.
Benefits vs Open-Cut Trenching
Cutting asphalt for every duct run burns schedule and restoration budget — boring links vaults with fewer full-width cuts.
- Bundle conduits in one bore path
- Cross lots without full paving removal
- Align with GC vertical construction dates
- Reduce cable pull distance with straighter runs
When You Need This Service
- TI schedule needs underground feed fast
- Crossing under energized corridor with permits
- Industrial pad requires redundant feeds
- City wants underground distribution aesthetic
Texas 811 & Permits
Power locates are mandatory; we treat unknown voltage as live and pothole accordingly across Texas metros.
Cost Factors (No Flat Rate)
Duct count, vault spacing, soil, asphalt restoration, traffic control, and engineer inspection time.

FAQ
Electric Conduit & Power Line Boring FAQ
How many conduits fit in one bore?
Engineered per duct size, wall thickness, and reamed diameter — we do not overload pulls to save a few dollars on ream size.
Do you pull cable?
Our core scope is conduit placement; cable pulling is often a separate electrical trade — we coordinate interfaces.
Can you bore under energized lines?
Only with approved clearances, locates, and sometimes outage coordination — safety plan first.
What is horizontal directional drilling (HDD)?
HDD is a steerable trenchless method that drills a pilot hole underground, then reams and pulls pipe or conduit through the bore path. It avoids open trenches across roads, rivers, driveways, and finished landscaping.
How much does directional boring cost in Texas?
Cost depends on bore length, pipe diameter, soil and rock, access, traffic control, permits, and utility congestion — not a flat per-foot rate. We provide free estimates after scope review; no fabricated prices on our site.
