Underground Electrical Gaine

Recommended Posts

We'd like to install some lights along our drive and I've search this forum for the relevant information without success.

What are the regulations for burying electrical cable underground?  It will be a cable run underground of around 25-30 meters in total, with 3 lights popping up along it's length, plus a switch.  It will also be installed onto it's own individual circuit breaker. 

For example, does the gaine need to be red?  Does that fact it's going underground mean the gaine and cable need to conform to a specific standard?
