●to reduced emission into the surrounding area of the electromagnetic fields.
●Underground cables also pose no shock hazard.
●
●
● Undergrounding is more expensive
disadvantages ●
● underground repairs can take days or weeks
●
● Operations And voltage control more difficult

performance needed such as good abrasion resistance, good process ability,
underground electric reasonable moisture resistance properties, and good stress cracking resistance.
