Underground Cable Fault Locations
One of our specialised skills is in tracking underground cable faults whether on a major motorway network or under a small playing field.
We offer a complete service which includes:
- taking control of electrical safety
- pinpointing the fault
- excavation
- repair of the cable
- testing of the repaired cable and return to service
- reinstatement of the ground
One of our highly experienced chartered engineers will take overall responsibility for each fault location and we will use both bespoke test equipment and the latest hi-tech visual and acoustic test equipment available from leading manufacturers.
