Electrical Pits
Electrical Pits
Civilcast Electrical Pits, part of Civilcast's Precast Concrete range, are precast pits for ducting systems and cabling installations, available in common sizes with bell mouth options from 50mm up to 150mm. Where a project needs a configuration outside the standard range, Civilcast offers custom pit sizing and joint bays, backed by a technical advisory service for product selection and installation guidance. Pits are engineered to withstand harsh site conditions. A cover is required separately (either a cast iron concrete infill cover or a solid top cover, both available with concrete encasement for a faster, ready-to-use install) and must be matched to the load Class set by the project's design and wheel load requirements.
Features
Electrical Pits are precast to suit standard ducting and cabling installations, with bell mouth options across six sizes to match common conduit diameters. Where a project falls outside that standard range, custom sizing, joint bays and a technical advisory service are available to support selection and installation — see the advantages of precast concrete for why it’s specified so widely for this kind of infrastructure.
- Bell mouth options: 50, 63, 80, 100, 125 and 150mm
- Custom pit sizing and joint bays available
- Engineered for harsh site conditions
- Technical advisory service for selection and installation

Benefits
Because pit and cover are specified separately and cable routing varies from site to site, the main risks are mismatched sizing and incorrect specification, both addressed directly by Civilcast’s approach. Custom sizing avoids costly on-site rework, while advisory support reduces the risk of specifying the wrong pit or cover combination before installation begins.
- Custom sizing avoids costly on-site rework when a project’s cable routing doesn’t match standard pit dimensions
- Advisory support reduces the risk of specifying the wrong pit or cover combination before installation begins
Applications
Electrical Pits are used across cable and communication ducting and general electrical infrastructure projects, wherever a precast pit is needed to house ducting before conduit and cabling are run through it. Custom civil projects with non-standard routing or pit dimensions are supported through Civilcast’s custom sizing and joint bay options rather than being limited to the standard range.
- Cable and communication ducting
- Electrical infrastructure projects
- Custom civil projects needing non-standard pit sizes

FAQ's
No. The pit and cover are specified separately — typically a cast iron cover — since the right cover Class depends on the wheel and pedestrian loads expected at that specific location, not just the pit size.
50mm through to 150mm, in six standard increments. The bell mouth size needs to match the conduit being run into the pit, so confirm conduit diameter before ordering.
