Cable avoidance training is part of the safety standard for professionals working near underground utility services. In most regions, including the UK, cable avoidance is legally required to avoid serious injuries, service disruptions and financial losses. At Sygma Solutions Ltd, we offer a CAT course designed to train and equip professionals with the essential skills needed to ensure safety in construction and utility environments.

What is cable avoidance?

In excavation, construction and utility, underground utilities are like hidden treasures. These utilities include water mains, gas pipelines and electricity cables. These underground services are essential for continuing modern functions, but if they are not handled properly, they can pose a significant risk.

At our CAT training programme, you will learn about the importance of utility services and the tools required to detect their presence. Our course will teach you how to avoid accidentally striking the underground services to ensure a safe working environment.

What is the significance of our CAT course?

  • Sygma Solution Ltd’s CAT training offers practical knowledge on understanding underground utilities and how to avoid them. Our course covers practical expertise in handling cable avoidance tools to avoid costly accidents and detect underground utilities before the start of construction or excavation projects.
  • Safety is the essence of our training. We empower the delegates of the training course with the skills required to minimise risks.
  • Our CAT course familiarises the delegates with the best practices and industry regulations to always be on the right side of the law.
  • Our training can be tailored to cater to your specific needs and requirements.

So, are you related to excavation or construction? If so, you need to enrol for our CAT training programme immediately. Our training course offers theoretical and practical knowledge. We will introduce you to all the cutting-edge cable avoidance tools used to detect the presence of underground services. Additionally, we will give you hands-on experience in using the tools. You will also be apprised of the drawbacks of the tools so you can be prepared.

If you are interested in learning more about cable avoidance or have a legal requirement to join a CAT training course, do not hesitate to reach out to Sygma Solutions Ltd. Our course is priced competitively, and you will get complete attention from our industry-leading trainers. We are happy to clear any doubts you may have.
