Pole depth confusion
i know the typical ”formula” to find out how much should be buried is 10% of pole depth plus 2ft, but in real world observations I’ve seen it all over the place. Like sometimes it’s closer to 15% plus 2, or even more.
Aside from bad soil, are standard scenarios where poles without guywire needs to be buried so deep?
