Course contents:
Avoidance of underground services is a requirement for anyone who is penetrating the ground for any reason. Cable avoidance tools are becoming more sophisticated with each passing year.
A user must be able to understand its limitations and correct use along with any tell-tale signs such as patches on the road surface etc.
Our course will introduce you to the theoretical and practical side of this subject.
What will I learn?
The course starts out by looking at both legislation and guidance available on the subject of avoidance of underground
services; what is or is not locatable.
As well as the common features on a cable avoidance tool, the course covers accessories and their use, plus duct colours and operating modes.
The course is delivered by one of our trained staff in an informal yet informative presentation.
Who would benefit?
This course is aimed at anyone requiring an introduction to avoidance of underground services. Those who have recently purchased a cable avoidance tool or need further information prior to purchasing would be ideal candidates for this course.
Correct setting up and use of the equipment, along with a knowledge of operational limitations, is vital to ensure operator safety and the avoidance of any disruption to underground services.
