It depends a lot on where you live. Here in Hillsboro Oregon, the frost line is between 12 and 18 inches. Generally I suggest you bury your main line between 18 and 24. A good rule of thumb is to set it around 6 inches below the local frost line.

The answer to this is undefined. "By laws" state that a water main may not be less than 500mm from the ground surface, therefore a plumber can go any depth as long as he goes deeper than 500mm from the ground surface.

It depends on the pipe line of your area. Go for professional team of sewer line installation they will do everything and give you proper information about this. Hire Coles Plumbing in Dallas they are great in their work.

How deep should wires to an outdoor fountain be underground?

It's not a matter of how deep electrical wire should be buried. The wire should be protected by plastic or metal conduit and marked suitably above ground - buried utility. I am certain that you will be burying a water line to the fountain "below the frost line" for your area, so consider placing you electrical wires at the same depth.
