Underground Electrical Service Wire Repair

Underground electrical service wires, whether the utility's underground service lateral or a customer-owned feeder run to a garage or outbuilding, can be damaged by digging, tree roots, ground movement, or simply age. RCC Electric locates and repairs underground electrical wiring for residential and commercial properties throughout East Tennessee.

Damaged underground wiring causes symptoms ranging from partial power loss and voltage fluctuations to complete outages and tripped main breakers. Diagnosing underground faults requires specific testing equipment to locate the fault before any excavation. We use appropriate test methods to pinpoint the problem and minimize the area that needs to be opened.

All underground wiring repairs are performed with the correct cable type for direct burial or conduit installation, proper burial depth, and appropriate protective conduit at transition points. We restore the trench and surface when the work is complete.
