It's already full of water.

If it keeps water in, it can keep water out. ;-)

Subject: [AFMUG] Poly well pipe as conduit
A customer ran 1600' of polyethelyne water pipe instead of a conduit
for a fiber drop cable. He asked me before hand if it was ok, and I
said "It doesn't bother me, but check with code enforcement to make
sure it's ok." I had assumed code would tell him to get a conduit
instead of a water pipe. He says they told him it was fine.
I could direct bury the cable, so it truly doesn't matter to me what
the type of pipe/conduit is. I'm just surprised that it wouldn't be an
issue for code enforcement. My belief is that fiber optic cables are
within the scope of NEC and that NEC calls for listed conduit. Am I
mistaken?
