OK guys no where in my posts will you see that I say it will not work.

The problem comes down to the listing, for whatever reason SER is only listed for above ground use.

I agree it makes no sense but that is the situation.

If you use a product outside it's listing you have a 110.3(B) violation.

I sent out a number of emails asking questions about this thread and the responses I got all have the same basic opinion.

SE(R) installed underground is presently a NEC violation. [Linked Image]
