Step 1

At right is a photo of ½” gas stub and an electrical conduit
stubbed up inside a hole made by a post hole digger. The
hole is 12” deep. The wire installed inside the conduit was
low voltage landscape wire (12 gauge) and we pulled 8’ of
wire beyond the end of the conduit to have plenty to pull up
through the poles in the Tiki.

Step 2

At left we fished the wire thru the Base Pole and slid it
over the Gas & Electric stubs. Notice we adjusted the
height of the Base Pole so that the tapered top end of the
Base Pole ended up above grade. This we did to make
the connection between the Base Pole and the Tiki Pole
easier later on.
