Because downed overhead power lines create such a hassle in winter, underground high voltage cable installation is becoming a more practical option. Instead of having overhead powerlines hanging that are exposed to the damaging elements, the cables are being installed underground which keeps them well protected from the issues caused by winter storms. As a result the occurrence or frequency of power outages caused by downed lines is significantly decreased.
Technological advancements are incorporated into the installation and configuration of underground power lines to ensure that they remain functional and perform better than overhead power lines, particularly in terms of capacity and reliability. Underground installation is a more efficient replacement for overhead power lines. At a glance, it may seem that the biggest benefit to underground lines is only performed for aesthetic purposes. But taking a look at the bigger picture, you will see that they serve a more significant purpose making electrical power lines less susceptible to environmental factors that can lead to power interruptions. Less maintenance means a decrease in operational costs of the cables over their lifetime.
