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.
