Using the Signal Generator:

Direct Connection

The direct connection leads and earth stake that are supplied with the Signal Generator
are used to apply a signal to any metal pipe at a suitable access point such as a valve,
hydrant point, stop cock or exposed pipe length.

1. Plug the direct connection leads into the Signal Generator
connection socket.

2. Attach the red lead to the pipe at your point of access using
the crocodile clip. Ensure that you have a secure and clean grip
on the pipe with the crocodile clip.

3. Turn the Signal Generator on.

WARNING Never connect directly to electrical services.

WARNING You may need to seek permission from the service owners before connecting on to some buried services.

NOTE The type of metal that the pipe is constructed from or it’s use will have little effect on its traceability.

NOTE If it is not possible to get the crocodile clip to grip the pipe then use the magnet on the back of the clip.
