c. Do not terminate closer than 4 feet horizontally

from any electric meter, gas meter, regulator, relief

valve, or other equipment. Never terminate above or

below any of these within 4 feet horizontally.

6. Locate terminations so they are not likely to be damaged by

foreign objects, such as stones or balls, or subject to buildup

of leaves or sediment.
