Electrical – bury an electrical wire

electrical

I just removed a deck in my backyard.

Under it was some of the electrical wire that runs from my home to my garage (pictures are below).

Can someone recommend the best steps to burying this underground?

What you see in the photos is the only portion that is exposed.

Thank you!

You may not even need to alter the existing conduit setup. I'd trench under the existing pipe and alongside the vertical run. I'd then simply lay the vertical run over on its side, allowing a substantial length of pipe to twist in each direction. Get it down 6" or more and stake it down, if necessary, before re-burying it.
