As a result, it is important that those working on the roads, no matter if they are an Operative or a Supervisor, are fully trained in using a Cable Avoidance Tool (CAT) along with a signal generator (Genny). These two pieces of equipment work together to actively locate signals being omitted from pipes or cables that are hidden underground.
