LORD has over six decades of experience working with high voltage underground projects. In this time, we have applied broad expertise in a wide variety of environments.
We have brought power to and through densely populated residential, urban and commercial settings, remote desert locations, industrial or tourism ports, even around tropical forests. Our high voltage team is trained to work with cables as small as a 1/0 poly cable in PVC as well as with DC submarine cables and trained to work with high voltage installations up to 450,000 kV. Our continued success makes us the "go-to electrical contractor" in the regions we serve.
Safety and Technological Innovation
Our commitment to safety ensures our team is always current with the latest technological innovation in the power cable industry and best practices. Below are a few of the many services, and cable equipment we are trained to handle:
- cable splicing, joints, and terminations, joints,

Introducing Change
LORD has been a partner in building and adapting infrastructure to meet changing demands for power distribution. When overhead electric cables serving power to thousands of homes and industries need to be re-designed to go underground, LORD is the contractor to call. We have enabled this change in densely populated areas, with major roadways and industrial clients and little room for error. The Mall fo San Juan and Catalina's Mall in Caguas are examples of this high-stakes changeover from overhead to underground. In both projects LORD was instrumental to the project design, installed a gas-insulated substation (GIS), built the vault and made sure our client's needs were met on time, on budget, and with the highest standards of safety.
