Tint as desired with red food color Underground Lines Costly To Idaho Power Company The estimated cost of tsiry- ing Idaho Power Company's low- voltage residential distribution lines would be $938 million-- or more than $5,000 for each of its customers, G.E. Mc Broom, the utility's western division manager, reported Wednesday. “This high cost, which is about double the value of the company's entire power-supply system, would have to be re flected in substantially in creased electric rates,” he said.

Makes about 1 1/2 quarts. conducting an extensive re search and development pro gram on the underground con struction of long transmission lines operating at high volt ages, according to the manager. "But at the present time," he said, “underground trans mission at higher voltages and for longer distances is not eco nomically feasible." Comparing some of the costs of low-voltage residential un derground and overhead service, McBroom said underground service from the transformer to a new home costs about twice as much. New underground main feeder services in residential areas cost about six times as much as overhead, he said, and con version of existing overhead distribution lines to under ground service about eight times as much. The utility official said in version of existing overhead lines to underground service costs more than building new ones because "it requires scrapping good, working equip ment which represents a con siderable investment." In ad dition, it can require digging up trees, lawns, shrubbery, driveways and streets. McBroom, noting that Idaho Power’s reliability record al ready is better than 99.9 per cent and that underground ser vice is “not necessarily" more reliable, also compared main tenance problems with the two types of service. “Overhead lines are subject to wind, ice, falling tree limbs and motor vehicle damage, but resulting service outages usually are brief." On the other hand, he said, outages on underground lines “last longer” since damage that can be - caused by digging, rodents, corrosion, freezing, thawing and earth movement “often is difficult to locate and expensive to repair.” McBroom pointed out that Idaho EAiwt r recommends un derground service for new re sidential developments because installation of burled lines is • far more practical” before homes and driveways are built and landscaping is completed. More than 10.000 Idaho Power customers are now served through low-voltage under ground distribution lines, he said. “Only a small portion of our distribution system is under ground, but that portion is in creasing substantially from year to year.“ The Manager also noted that Idaho Power does take advan tage of new materials and tech nology for new installations and replacement of obsolete equip ment.'* ■ But because the company’s system has been built over more than half a century, it would be improvident to try to re place this whole rntwork of valuable equipment, which is already paid for and functioning well,” McBroom said.
