    Hi Matt, Due to the age of some of the assets and Arc Flash risk in confined space, we have in most of our underground Sub Stations a no entry while live and deenergize to make safe policy. All of our Underground Subs are Confined Spaces and require gas monitoring and permit entry and tripod rescue set up. Have a longer-term project to move as many as possible above ground.
