Abstract

Underground cables have been used from the earliest time as integral parts of the power distribution and transmission system. Compared to their overhead analogues, they have been long regarded as the most critical of components due in part to their high total installed cost, their unique ampacity requirements, and the complexity of their installation. Thus, even from the very first technical papers, the sustainability, through reliability and longevity, has been of paramount importance. This contribution addresses the focus on sustainability today while maintaining a linkage to the lessons that have been already learned.
