Underground Conversion Program improves reliability of the electric grid, while also enhancing the overall visibility along the City’s major roadways by removing overhead power, phone and cable TV lines.
History - In 1990, the City Council established the Underground Conversion Program to improve reliability of the electric system that delivers power to residents and businesses. The Program also enhances the overall visibility along the City’s major roadways by removing overhead power, phone and cable TV lines. New street lights are installed as part of undergrounding projects.
Funding for Anaheim’s underground facilities is provided through a 4–percent surcharge on electric bills, while phone and cable TV companies pay for undergrounding their facilities.
