Seattle City Light says it’s planning underground-cable work in two West Seattle neighborhoods, and that work will come with scheduled outages. These are the maps accompanying the announcement – first, sections of 20th and Webster:
Next, several blocks in Fauntleroy.
Click either image to see the full flyer with both maps. Here’s the SCL overview of the planned work:
Seattle City Light plans to increase reliability in five sections of its service
territory by injecting aging underground electrical cable with silicone.* Work: Seattle City Light’s contractor first tests and, if electric cable is suitable, injects it with silicone. The silicone fills cracks in the cable’s insulation and extends its life by approximately 20 years.
* Impacts and timeline: Up to three power outages per customer are required to do the work safely. Customer notification will happen on the Thursday before the next week’s outage. The start date is the week of October 13. All five neighborhoods are expected to be completed within eight weeks.
* Further information: The point of contact for customers, Website, and additional details are cited in each flyer.
(The “five sections” reference includes four areas outside West Seattle.)
