underground cables offer several significant advantages over overhead lines:

• Safety & Reliability: They are far less susceptible to damage from severe weather like storms, high winds, and lightning, which leads to fewer power outages.

• Aesthetics: underground cables eliminate the visual clutter of poles and wires, preserving the natural or urban landscape.

• Public & Wildlife Safety: Since the conductors are not exposed, they pose no risk of electrocution to the public or wildlife and do not interfere with low-flying aircraft.

• Environmental Impact: They are less likely to cause wildfires and have a reduced electromagnetic field (EMF) emission into the surrounding area.
