C.A.T Avoidance Tool Calibration (C.A.T)

C.A.T Avoidance Tool Calibration (C.A.T)

Cable Avoidance Tool Calibration ensures your C.A.T locator detects underground utilities accurately during surveying and excavation work. Reliable detection helps engineers and contractors locate buried cables and pipes, reduce the risk of damage, and maintain safe site operations. Our technicians perform calibration using controlled signal sources and traceable reference equipment so your locator delivers dependable detection performance.

During the calibration process, our team checks the instrument across its detection functions within its operating range. This process confirms that the locator responds correctly to known signals and helps identify any deviation from expected performance. As a result, you can rely on your cable avoidance tool when tracing underground services during construction, maintenance, or site surveys.

Regular calibration of utility locating equipment helps prevent inaccurate detection that could lead to missed services or unnecessary excavation. Therefore, routine calibration supports reliable underground service detection across construction sites, civil engineering projects, and infrastructure maintenance environments.
