Yup, depending on the distance and type of ground, trenching is where you're gonna lose a lot of your money into labor...most places charge $100/hr+ for their labor and add in an extra $30/hr for a helper. In the one hour you pay for them you could rent a trencher and knock it out. I don't do any trenching, I run electrical on docks. I pay someone to trench and then add 20% to the customer if I ever encounter it.If at all possible do the trenching yourself it will save you a lot of money. Home Depot in Pcola rents three different trenchers and they are not difficult to use.
Just don't forget to call 811!If at all possible do the trenching yourself it will save you a lot of money. Home Depot in Pcola rents three different trenchers and they are not difficult to use.
I went to home Depot yesterday and saw their trencher. I could knock the trench out I don't don't have the skill to wire.Yup, depending on the distance and type of ground, trenching is where you're gonna lose a lot of your money into labor...most places charge $100/hr+ for their labor and add in an extra $30/hr for a helper.

I can come and consult for you no problem, I just can't trench or do anything physical due to a recent back surgery. Wiring is insanely easy once you know what you're looking at. I don't mind teaching you along the way as long as I'm compensated somewhat for my time. Everything I do is above and beyond code. I don't play around when it comes to weatherproofing and running lines. Shoot me a PM and we can discuss it further. I've been in the business for over 15 years running electrical.I went to home Depot yesterday and saw their trencher. I could knock the trench out I don't don't have the skill to wire.

Plan ahead on what you need, or may need for voltage/amperage. Too much is more better than not enough.As has already been said the hard part is burying the wire. The rest is actually pretty simple ,have someone knowledgeable about electricity draw you a simple diagram and follow it. If you are just running 120 volts to the shed you only have to deal with 3 different wires , white , black and a bare copper . The white and bare copper are neutral and the black is the hot wire .
