any copper that is run underground and comes up thru the concrete should be in a conduit to prevent the concrete eating away at the copper. There are chemicals in concrete that will cause the copper line deterioate and therefore fail after a few years. I eas a construction superintendent for 25 years and we would never bring copper up thru concrete without some protection
