"Does this mean for wiring a mobil home the underground service coming to the meter base is required to be sch. 80 and the stub up to the home? This one caught me with my pants down.If installed in pvc."

300.5 Underground Installations.
(D) Protection from Damage. Direct-buried conductors and cables shall be protected from damage in accordance with (1) through (5).
(4) Enclosure or Raceway Damage. Where the enclosure or raceway is subject to physical damage, the conductors shall be installed in rigid metal conduit, intermediate metal conduit, Schedule 80 rigid nonmetallic conduit, or equivalent.

I would not read it that way. I would think that subject to physical damage would cover close proximety to the handling of stock or storage or adjacent to a driveway.
