2. The Hidden Dangers Underground  Buried utilities are everywhere. Power cables, gas pipes, and water mains lurk beneath the surface. Digging without knowing their location is risky. A single misstep can cause a cable strike. These incidents lead to injuries, project delays, and hefty repair costs. Cable Avoidance training is the key to preventing these disasters. Sygma Solutions Ltd specialises in equipping operatives with the skills to dig safely. Why Cable Strikes Happen  Many strikes occur due to poor detection practices. Relying on outdated plans or guesswork isn’t enough. Traditional methods like Power and Passive detection miss non-powered utilities. Plastic pipes and dormant cables stay hidden. This leaves operatives vulnerable. Cable Avoidance training changes that. It teaches precise detection techniques. Sygma’s courses focus on using the signal generator (Genny) to trace utilities accurately. Safety First  Cable strikes aren’t just costly. They’re dangerous. Striking a power cable can cause electrocution. Hitting a gas pipe risks explosions. These incidents endanger workers and the public. Cable Avoidance training prioritises safety. Operatives learn to identify utilities before digging. You will learn to master tools like Radiodetection CAT4, RD8100, Vivax Vscan, and C Scope locators. Sygma’s hands-on approach ensures they can handle real-world challenges.

3. Saving Time and Money  A cable strike halts projects. Repairs eat into budgets. Fines and downtime add up fast. Cable Avoidance training reduces these risks. Operatives learn to survey sites thoroughly. We use the Genny to map utilities with precision. This prevents unexpected setbacks. Sygma’s training has a proven track record. Contractors and utility companies see fewer strikes after their operatives train with Sygma. Meeting Industry Standards  Major projects demand qualified operatives.
