HOW UNDERGROUND PIPE AND CABLE LOCATORS WORK
Underneath our streets are pipes and cables that power our utilities. Some conduct electricity, emitting signals. Underground cable locator finds these lines using electromagnetic tracing. For passive location, just turn on the locator and wait for the signal alert. For non-conductive lines or active tracing, a signal transmitter induces a signal. This is detected by a receiver tuned to the emitted frequency. Alternatively, for non-conductive lines like optic fiber, a conductive rod can be used for tracing. GPR systems are also effective for locating buried objects regardless of conductivity.
