you should do a video on tools and accessories you would recommend for new utility locators that the job does not provide, things like boots, and anything else to make the job easier on new people.

I will consider it but locating companies locate different utilities some locate companies only do one utility and others may do 2 or 3 utilities and the bigger locating companies may do 4 or 6 different utilities so it's kind of hard to determine what kind of tools each utility locating person will need.

Is there a reason you ground out in range w/ your utility, instead of perpendicular to it?

@811chicago5 2 ай бұрын

When I place my ground rod parallel with the utility, I aim to minimize signal loss and ensure a clear, direct path for the return signal back to my ground rod.

To be honest, water is the service I despise locating. Never get a strong tone when marking water in my area, bad prints to work with, and of course cement pipes in the area. I know a few of my co-workers use dowsing rods to help locate water but I was always skeptical on them

@811chicago5 Жыл бұрын

Having expertise in utilizing rods can be highly beneficial and advantageous to keep at your disposal.

What frequency did you use ?

@811chicago5 Жыл бұрын

It really all depends on the resistance on the cable that I'm trying to locate. I mainly mark out power and power has high resistance so I have to use a higher frequency to blow through the resistor.
