[Shop-talk] Repair underground conduit

[Doug Braun]

Keep one thing in mind:  There is not really any
expectation that the inside of an underground conduit
will remain dry.  I have seen conduits that carry
telco or power company lines under a street from one
pole to another, with floodwater pouring in one end
and pouring out the other.  

So you may be able to patch it with a piece of split
PVC pipe, glue, and clamps and be OK, even though it
is not hermetically sealed.
