Wiring – Found PVC while digging, what is the purpose of the pipe I hit

pvcundergroundwiring

So I didn't call before I started digging because I was replacing an existing fence and I just made the assumption there would be any issue in moving the post hole a little bit. As luck would have it I hit two different types of pipes when digging the new holes. Any ideas on fixes for this or what this even is?

Not the sprinkler line as when i turned on the sprinklers no leaking occurred. Nothing came leaking out of either one and getting a current clamp tomorrow to see if the black one is electrical.

My best guess is the two pvc are abandoned irrigation given the size and thickness. The black is definitely for a drip system and the wire is most likely low voltage landscape lighting. Keep in mind all any of us can do is tell you what those items were intended For by the mfg. I have seen many a product abused and misused so without testing one cannot be sure. But given the material, location, depth, and proximity odds are very high that one or more of us nailed it. Not quite as good as you did though.
