C.A.T and Genny training stands for Cable Avoidance Tool and Generator training. CAT and Genny training is essential for groundwork, excavation and construction sites. The CAT and Genny are a type of work equipment that can be used to detect underground cables and services.
Correct CAT and Genny training will give you the skills and knowledge of how to correctly test, maintain and more importantly use this type of work equipment. This will help to avoid damage of underground services and keeping costs down as the repair work can be quite expensive.
CAT and Genny training pairs up great with excavator training as any time you need to use an excavator for trench or excavation work or even installing some fence posts for new fencing then checking for underground cables and utilities is especially important.
CAT and Genny training will give you confidence to know how to use the Cable Avoidance Tool to detect loaded electrical cables or different types of pipes using the radio detection mode. CAT and Genny training will also allow you to gain the practical knowledge to use the signal generator (Genny) to apply a signal to metal pipes or cables that can be detected by the CAT. Through proper CAT and Genny training this will allow you to trace the exact position of underground services and sometimes even give you an indication of the depth of the cables if used correctly.
