When it comes to any sort of excavations and groundworks, it is vital to know the exact location of underground services and utilities. Failure to do so can lead to costly damage, delays, and even dangerous accidents which, on occasion, can be fatal. That is why it is essential to invest in proper training for your team. And when it comes to training in the location of underground services and utilities, Sygma Solutions is the company to call.
Sygma Solutions is the foremost UK training provider, based in Wigan, that specialises in all aspects of underground utilities detection and mapping. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, we have built a reputation for excellence in the field. We provide a range of training courses to suit different levels of experience and expertise, including essential CAT training.
CAT training, or Cable Avoidance Tool training, is a must-have for anyone involved in excavations or groundworks. The course teaches participants how to use the CAT together with a Genny (Signal Generator) to locate underground services and utilities accurately. The CAT and Genny are industry-standard tools that can detect buried cables, pipes, and other services. However, without proper training, these tools can be ineffective.
The CAT training provided by Sygma Solutions covers everything you need to know to operate the tool effectively and safely. Our course includes classroom theory and hands-on practical training, giving participants a comprehensive understanding of the tool and its applications. This training is suitable for beginners and experienced operatives alike and is accredited by the Energy and Utility Skills Register (EUSR).
In fact, we also provide EUSR CAT and Genny training, which is a more advanced level of training for those who want to demonstrate their proficiency in the use of the tools. The EUSR is recognised by employers in the utilities sector and an EUSR card is a requirement for many industry sectors such as operatives working on HS2 and Heathrow Airport.
With Sygma Solutions’ EUSR CAT and Genny training, you can be confident that your team has the knowledge and skills they need to locate underground services and utilities accurately and safely. This not only helps you avoid costly mistakes and delays but also ensures the safety of your team and anyone else in the vicinity of your excavation or groundworks.
If you need training in the location of underground services and utilities, Sygma Solutions is the company to call. Our courses are comprehensive, accredited, and taught by industry experts. Investing in proper training for your team is an investment in your business’s success and safety, and Sygma Solutions can help you achieve both.
