Electrical wire question for my land

[advancebooking]

I cannot find the electrical forum anymore

 

Basically I want to run wires along the poles (from the carport) and have a switch installed near the red x on the pole in the photo. We want our builders to lay a small slab of concrete (in the area where the green pipe is leaning against the bucket in the corner) and intend to put a few water tanks and a pump there 

 

From the pole to the pump will be 5m or more. The pump cord will obviously not reach that. So what is the solution?

 

Options

1. dont put the switch at the red x. Instead run it down the pole and then along the wall closer. Put the switch on the side of the wall?

2. Install the switch on the pole at the red x and ask electrician to extend the length of the pump cord by 5m and run that underground to the pole. Cover that wire in plastic pipe?

 

Which is best option?

thanks
