Make that 10’ in diameter. New Zealand has some under sea transmission lines that are superconductors I think due to the limits of high voltage transmission.

Also the higher the voltage the larger the line. Underground transmission lines would have to be in pressurized tubes 10-20” in diameter. And you can’t work on them live.

We have a loose pocket fed right now so the state can get federal disaster relief to fix the distribution. I dont know enough about distribution to understand why it is we can bury a billion miles of fiber to get porn to the masses but we keep putting our electrical distribution on poles. Earthquakes aside not much happens in the dirt, and I bet errant backhoe operators are a little more careful when it comes to electrocution vs interrupting pornhub.
