Default Best way to dig a 40' long trench to bury wires

Per :
In a 2 inch conduit????? They could run 4 times the cable through it
without trouble. You blow a pull string through first


I had conduit run to my garden shed a year or two ago.

Two pipes: one for AC, the other for Ethernet.

Not knowing much, I trusted the guy who did it and he used something
like .5 or 1" conduit.

If I were doing it over again, I would definitely use 2" conduit:

- Negligible increase in cost

- Much easier to pull through

- Plenty of reserve.
