Even the long-haul 765kv and up connections across the power grid? In the US, they're out on towers for a reason - you can fly along them in a helicopter and easily spot parts of cable that are degrading and need repair because they glow brighter on an infrared scope... (Plus, as Hurricane Sandy taught Manhattan, buried wires have their own rather nasty failure modes....)
