Message: <blockquote data-quote="jw1" data-source="post: 560809" data-attributes="member: 38444">There is a small National Grid box (transformer?) on the row of electricity lines next to our hedge and lawn. The ground screw company replacing an existing outbuilding for us have noticed black armoured cables running down each pole of this box and are concerned they come into our garden. The poles/box is actually in the hedge in the farmers field next to our garden but some of its supports for the poles are on our lawn. Obviously we would like to ensure the cables don’t run anywhere under our lawn where the foundations of the new outbuilding will be drilled. It’s a mystery as our house supply comes in elsewhere and there’s nothing else around except farmland. (The farmer had no idea they were there). I wondered if they were just earths of some kind and standard for this setup....can anyone shed any light? Thanks</blockquote>
