Underground Drop
A dedicated conduit with pull string is required from the home to the pedestal. Contact the engineer for more details. Cox recommends using a 2" conduit for U/G Service Drops up to 300'. The house service drop needs to be installed at 18" of depth minimum. A survey will be needed for any drops over 300' in the early building stage.  See Contact Service Coordinator for survey.

Aerial Drop
All standard aerial service drops (up to 300')will be complete by Cox Communications Field Services at time of install.  All aerial drops over 300' will need a survey in early building stage.  See Contact Service Coordinator for survey.

Internal Wiring
Pre-wiring should be common practice for all new home projects so that no wiring will be exposed on the outside of the house in order to meet the new home owner wiring needs. Cox recommends RG-6 Coaxial Cable 67% or greater shielding. This will help stop unwanted signals and frequencies from interfering with the quality of the services being provided over that same coax. All internal wiring should be done by professionals, cables should be ran in a way to avoid future damage while the rest of the construction takes place in the house. The use of cable protectors is recommended to avoid damage by nails and screws.

Cox requires every outlet to be a home-run wired back to the main de-mark location (in the basement or outside).
