| Underground cables in Ballinger Neighborhood will be injected with silicone |
Seattle City Light will start another project this October to enhance the reliability and extend the life of aging underground electrical cables in parts of Shoreline by injecting them with silicone.
 |
| Underground cable 5th NE |
· Starting in early-to-mid October 2015 and extending for approximately six weeks, Novinium will test and where possible, inject underground cables with silicone to fill cracks in the cable insulation to prevent unplanned outages. Daily work hours are from 8:30am to 4:30pm.
· The work will extend the life of the cable for an additional 25 years and improve electrical reliability.
· Maintenance outages are anticipated for this work. All affected customers will be notified the Thursday before the following week’s outage. The outage date and time will be specified on the notification.
· Traffic and parking impacts are expected in the immediate area. Crews will be careful to try and maintain access to driveways.
