When you plug your mobile phone into the socket on the wall to recharge it, switch on your air fryer, or fire up your laptop, everything works absolutely perfectly. What we never think about is what is happening. Sure, it’s electricity, but so what?
You can’t connect to the electricity without it first being produced and then supplied to your property by miles and miles of cables. In this case, it has been estimated to be anywhere between 1.5 million and 2.5 million miles of them – all of which run under the ground to get to your home and those of everyone else in the UK.

Industry insiders understand that it is critical to avoid striking any underground services when commencing any sort of work that involves digging into the soil, whether that is using a digger such as a JCB or just a fork and shovel. We know that there are at least 1.5 million km of services that run underground in the UK, and the unfortunate fact is that we also know that there are some 60,000 cable strikes a year. A “cable strike” is an overall term which covers any sort of utility, which may be cables, pipes, and so on. Indeed, there are some 60,000 cable strikes a year. Looked at another way, that is 165 every single day!
