Underground Conversions

FPL has been installing underground service for close to 40 years and is committed to increasing its underground facilities. More than 37 percent of our current system is already underground, compared to about 20 percent in other utilities nationwide. Currently, more than two-thirds of FPL’s new distribution lines have been placed underground.

In the last couple of years, there has been a lot of interest in underground service. We have received requests for this type of service for many reasons including:

• Aesthetics
• Increased reliability during adverse weather

While underground service is convenient in many ways, it is important for interested customers to understand its pro’s and con’s, and the requirements to convert existing overhead service.
