... but undergrounding has problems of its own.


Like what?. In comparison to overhead?..


More difficult to upgrade. Can be damaged by ground movement. Prone to
getting digger shovels through them. Faults normally take a lot longer

Overall less bother so I've noticed over some 20 years at several

On new build's and estates you never, least round this way, see overhead
delivered services..
