Crew feeding red power conduit from reels beside a roadway
●Capability 3.0

Underground power

Conduit for electric utilities, cooperatives, solar sites, and developers, installed under roads and finished ground without open-cutting.

Overview

Undergrounding power puts the work beneath everything else.

Undergrounding electric lines protects them from storms and keeps rights-of-way clear, but it puts the work underneath roads, driveways, and established properties.

Sosebee bores and places conduit for underground primary and secondary, service lines, and site electrical runs, with the surface left intact.

We work alongside utility crews and electrical contractors, following their specs for conduit size, depth, and route.

FAQ

Common questions.

What kind of power work does Sosebee do?

We bore and place underground conduit for electric primary, secondary, and service lines, plus site conduit for solar and commercial developments.

Why bore instead of trenching for power?

Boring keeps roads, driveways, and finished properties intact, limits restoration to the entry and exit pits, and avoids shutting down traffic.

Who do you work with on power projects?

Electric utilities, cooperatives, solar developers, electrical contractors, and site developers.

Do you follow utility specifications?

Yes. Conduit size, depth, and routing are confirmed with the utility or electrical contractor before the bore starts.

Where does Sosebee work?

We are headquartered in Hayesville, North Carolina, and mobilize crews nationwide.
