Sorry, no other context. The author is Montreal based, so it may a quebecoisme. I think it might mean the laying of underground electrical distribution network. It gets cold up there...

installation of underground power lines
One might say 'burial', but I always think that sounds rather like layman's language...
Might also be 'underground power line installation' or 'installing power lines underground' or 'underground installation of power lines' (for example).
Might also be 'underground power line installation' or 'installing power lines underground' or 'underground installation of power lines' (for example).
Note from asker:
| Thanks for that. My only concern is that is does not include some very specific terms from the original (electricity, network, distribution), which I might choose to include. |

: However "laying of ... underground" also covers the case of replacement of pole-strung lines, i.e. I tend to see "installation" as première monte!

Thnx Alex! Yes, i felt he same, bu then the same could be said for 'laying'... I think 'burial' is about the only one that hints at the idea of putting undergounrd something that was once overhead... What say? I guess the standards'd be the same?
