Pros and Cons of underground and overhead cables

Home More advice Education & School

• Answer #1

  pros on over head : easily installed easy to fix if a problem occurs costs less

  cons: easily damaged (for example if anything heavy falls on them) hazards to people if a cable is cut and falls on the ground will take up space for the poles on the road and they can be dangerous as well if they are damaged (may fall on people)

  pros on underground: hard to damage since they arent accessible to people also safe from weathering etc. if a wire is cut there is no threat of damaging people or animals

  cons: cost more maintenance is harder earthquakes (even small ones) may damage the wires

  these were all I could remember from my classes a few years ago...never did like being an electrician
