Locating underground services using cable locator

In this video we show you;
- Why we look up Dial Before You Dig plans, even if we are working on private property;
- How we hook onto a Telstra cable that we need to locate;
- Where we can obtain additional more information about underground electrical services, when not shown on the DBYD plans;
- What an underground power pit looks like;
- A different way to induce a signal onto a power cable, rather than clamping around the cable at the pit.

We’ve been in business since 1998, making us one of the oldest and most experienced service locating companies in Victoria.

Our manager Ben Minutoli was the first in Victoria to obtain his Dial Before You Dig certification and, to date, we’re still the only company in Victoria to have multiple technicians within the company who are DBYD certified (if you don't know, that’s the highest level of certification for a locator in Australia).

Actually, if you don't know about the Dial Before You Dig certification you can find out more about it here, at a blog post Ben wrote when it first came out: https://geelongcablelocations.com.au/...

And you can also read more about it on another blog post he wrote 12 months after it was started, as well as some tips on how to know which locator to pick to come out to your site: https://geelongcablelocations.com.au/...

If you have a question about either of those blog posts or, better still, if we can be of any assistance to you with any of your locating needs—or even if you’d just like to discuss a project you’re working on—then feel free to call us toll-free on 1800 449 543.
