What You Need To Know About Live Electrical Conduits And Services
Power cables and electrical conduits typically run within or below slabs and can be a high risk to building and excavation projects. Cutting through underground cables can be significantly costly, dangerous and the ‘worst case scenario’ could mean the death of your workers.
Underground power cables are made of various materials, laid at different depths, and need to be identified with the right equipment. It is essential that any live power below the ground is identified by a contractor with technical expertise to ensure pinpoint accuracy. Knowledge of cable depth and location is your best chance to avoid costly errors.
How Do We Locate Live Electrical Conduits And Services?
We use a range of Ridgid locating equipment for power cable detection:
ST-305 Line Transmitter – energises metallic lines for tracing
SeekTech SR-20 Locator – lightweight yet sturdy receiver to provide all information to locate fast and accurately
SeekTech Inductive Signal Clamp – apply a signal to a cable or pipe when direct connection is not possible
Where possible we will induce our own frequency into the electrical cables to track them. A report is provided to outline where power cables are located and at what depth, reducing the risk of accidental rupture.
