The CAT or Cable Avoidance Tool, enables workers to locate and identify underground utilities so that excavation on the jobsite does not result in the aforementioned chaos. The Genny tool is so-called because it is a signal generator. Its job is to latch onto and send a pulse down the length of a pipe or cable so the CAT can trace its path.
The sheer volume of utility lines, water pipes and cables found under the average road these days is formidable. In order to fend off costly accidents that set the project back, roadwork professionals use the CAT and Genny tools.
