Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) Locating
Ensuring the precise location of underground cables is paramount for any construction, excavation, or landscaping project, and Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) locating offers the industry’s most reliable solution. This non-invasive technique involves transmitting an electromagnetic signal onto a conductive cable or pipe, which is then detected by a sensitive receiver on the surface, allowing skilled technicians […]
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Exact Cable’s Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) service has emerged as an indispensable non-destructive testing method, particularly vital in an evolving urban region like Adelaide. With its blend of historic infrastructure and ongoing modern development, understanding what lies beneath the surface is crucial for safety, efficiency, and planning. GPR surveys in Adelaide are extensively employed for […]
GPS Mapping
While traditional GPS signals are notoriously ineffective underground, the critical need for precise subterranean mapping in Adelaide is paramount. Beneath the top layer lies a complex web of essential utilities – water mains, sewerage, gas lines, and telecommunications cables. Accurately locating and mapping these assets is crucial for preventing costly damage during excavation, ensuring efficient maintenance, […]
Sonde Locating & Tracing Non-Metallic Pipes
This technique uses a flexible rod fitted with a signal-emitting transmitter (sonde) to accurately trace the path and depth of non-metallic pipes or ducts underground. Commonly paired with drain cameras or rodding equipment, the sonde emits a radio signal that can be detected above ground, allowing technicians to pinpoint the exact location of pipes, blockages, […]
