Abstract
The efforts of one utility to address escalating underground outages while controlling cost and meeting customer expectations has led to the widespread use of silicone injection. After years of replacing cable at high economic cost, Puget Sound Energy (PSE) has implemented a process designed to reduce program costs without impacting reliability results. Cable injection provides long-term reliability results at a fraction of the cost of trenching through established cities and neighborhoods to replace aging cable
