So a house down the road from me in Christchurch had a black copper cable (assuming it's copper) sitting at the front of the driveway for a few months now. Yesterday I noticed a Chorus Van out the front digging a trench as I went to work. On the way back from work, the guy was gone and the trench was still open and the black cable was going straight into the red ducting that Enable has and was sealed up with some black insulation tape.

I do find that very odd that a Chorus contractor was doing this. There was no Enable sinage on his Van If it was a ufb order why wasn't red microducting used?

I will try and get a picture today.
