Cable plowing is a method of installation of underground cables, usually by a machine, for power and data networks. Underground cable plowing is used in many applications, such as electrical distribution and transmission, telecommunications, and fiber optic cables.

The machine uses a blade on the front, which digs a trench and lays cable.

Underground cable plowing work is becoming a common requirement for many utility providers.

Underground wiring provides several benefits. For starters, the installation costs are lower because you only need to dig a small hole, and installation takes less time than traditional methods. Furthermore, underground wiring is more reliable and protected from lightning strikes and power surges.
