    Can a telecom cable go in the same trench as an esb cable? Different duct obviously?

    They're usually placed at roughly the same depth. Maybe dig a slightly wider trench and keep a good spacing between them. Some sand or grit around the ducts and yellow danger tape on top of the sand over each duct. Backfill a foot or so and run another lash of danger tape. Backfill to finish and hopefully you'll never see them again!

    Thanks. Just want to be sure that there will be no interference to phone signal from esb cable etc.
