Locating, Inspecting, & Fault Finding Utilities Equipment for Electric, Gas, Water, Sewer, and Data
Radiodetection Precision Locator and GPR Training
As more underground infrastructure develops, it becomes increasingly important to locate and map buried utilities to prevent accidents and damage to infrastructure. Using Precision Locators and GPR together will provide the most accurate locate.
Participants will learn all aspects from theory and instrumentation to survey techniques and data interpretation. A major component of this course is getting hands-on experience using the equipment outdoors (please dress appropriately for the weather).

Training with Derry Electric in Warsaw, MI. Utilizing the RD8100 with the A-Frame Accessory, we pinpointed a fault in a power cable running an irrigation system.
Training with Hutchinson Electric in Waterford, MI. Here we showed that using a lower frequency and improving our grounding conditions, we can accurately locate a long ways and avoid a lot of bleed-over to other utilities. Also, it was easy to find our target line on the other side of the river by utilizing our Current Direction Frequencies in the RD8100.
Demo with Delta Township, MI. The RD7100 and RD8100 models having a constant depth reading is a huge benefit. In this picture we are doing a Depth Verification test, by raising the receiver and watching the depth reading, we can tell if we are getting a distorted field or a nice round EM field. If the depth correlates to how far we lift the receiver off the ground, we can trust that we have a round field.
