The CAT & Genny Operator Course (Essentials) is intended for those who operate, supervise or manage the use of Cable Avoidance Tools and Signal Generators in the workplace to avoid the dangers of underground services. There are no prerequisites for this course, although an understanding of underground services, utility plans and cable avoidance tools are an advantage.
Since the safe use of cable avoidance tools require that delegates consult safety notices and read and thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s instruction manual, English literacy and language comprehension are important requirements for any user.
During this course, we use a variety of models from the Radiodetection Cat 4 Range. However, if you have your own (calibrated) model you would like to use, please bring this with you for the course.
Upon successful completion of this course, each delegate will receive a Kentec e-Certificate of Training, valid for 3 years.

- The reasons for using locators
