Cable, Pipe Location and Drainage CCTV Inspection Services to Detect Underground Utilities Safely and Without Damage

Undertaking excavation work brings site workers close to your underground utilities, such as cables, pipes, and sewers. That’s why it is important to use professional cable location services, pipe location services and draining CCTV inspection services to understand the exact location of any buried underground utilities before undertaking any excavation project.

To detect underground utilities, cable and pipe location services providers may use either passive or active location detection methods. Some signals may already be present on the existing underground utilities, such as an electromagnetic field, that can be detected by a surveyor with the help of the passive detection method. However, when no current is flowing, the buried electrical cables cannot be detected by cable location services using the passive detection method.

In fact, up to 60% of buried utilities can be missed by cable location services or pipe location services when they use a passive mode alone for detecting these underground utilities. So, the surveyor may choose to employ an active mode by applying an electrical current or signal to the buried metallic utility, which enables it to be traced and identified easily.

Auto mode may be used to confirm the presence of utilities on the first site visit. Connection mode is the most efficient way of applying the signal to an underground utility. This method allows the operator to apply signal directly to the utility, and thus identify and trace its path. Non-metallic, plastic, and concrete pipes can be detected by using a tracer wire laid along the detection line used by the surveyor.
