Did you not read the first post in this thread? He said it is common to have buried cables dangaged by near by strikes. I assume "under ground" is not the tallest thing around The point about lightening is NOT if the object is directly struct. There is nothing you can do in that case, a "ightening arrestor" is kind of a joke to a bolt that just jumped across a miles long air gap. What destroyed the underground cable is the EMP pulse from a strike that was 100 feet away. EMP induced a current and the current was greater then the current carrying ability of the conductor.
