I looked up on google at one point what the minimum required depth for a cable running under a building is by NEC code. It told me it was 0 inches. I laughed and called it stupid, wtf do you mean 0 inches?? Upon further research, 0 inches is the correct answer, I felt real stupid after that -_-

Seems like a depth of 0 inches means you can just lay it on the floor?

No, it means 50% of the cable must be submerged or buried. Little speed bumps all around.

The 0 inches is to the top of the cable or raceway used, so it would be have to be at least perfectly flush with the ground. Obviously you can go lower.
