Outdoor work zones and construction sites are hives of activities, but if you are not careful, the dangers lurking beneath the surface can wreak havoc. We are talking about none other than the underground utilities and generators. Although they are essential tools, they pose serious threats if mishandled. This is where Sygma Solutions Ltd.’s CAT and Genny training comes in handy. Our comprehensive training course equips workers with the skills and knowledge required to overcome such hazards.
CAT (cable avoidance training) focuses on safe practices around buried utilities. Water pipes, underground power lines, and communication cables can pose serious threats if they are damaged accidentally during construction or excavation activities. This training course focuses on empowering workers to locate buried utilities using specialised equipment like electromagnetic locators.
Once you have finished your CAT training, you will be able to:
On the other hand, Genny refers to the signal generator. This tool emits a specific signal that is detected by the CAT.
By enrolling for our CAT and Genny training, you will be equipped with the knowledge of using both these tools – the CAT and Genny. These tools are used in conjunction to quickly detect underground utilities and steer clear of those locations during excavation or digging activities.
What is the importance of the CAT and Genny training?
The training is important because it equips workers with the knowledge and skills required to safely work on construction sites. Our training course offers theoretical and practical knowledge of how to use both the tools. Once the course finishes, the workers become capable of identifying hidden utilities and maintaining a safe work environment.
Who needs this training?
Our CAT & Genny training course is for anyone tasked with cable avoidance work or responsible for overseeing an excavation project. Construction site workers are also expected to benefit from this course.
