Sadly, the electrical was direct bury. I was hoping for conduit because I've had really good luck with prefab fiber assemblies in just this kind of application. No such luck here.

fs.com will custom build direct bury OS2 assemblies for reasonable prices. I'm a happy customer thrice over.

Depending on your lengths, budget, and your region's weather, might be worth giving second thought to just renting a little trencher and running a spare conduit or two (and maybe a water line too) then you're not locked in with one technology, and if that direct burial fails you can pull a new one in no time.

I enjoy getting dirty though, so I had fun hand trenching out to my shed -- didn't run water and I'm kicking myself
