• Activating Sonde depth will provide an inaccurate readout.
• Always use chalk or paint to mark services, never pegs or other material which are driven
into the ground.
• Additional services may be within the excavation zone, as well as the service you are
taking a depth reading from.
• The reading will be more accurate when taken over a straight run, where the service does
not bend, or have a service crossing it or coming off it.
• An additional depth reading should be taken with the locator lifted off the ground by
approximately 100 mm (4 inches). The reading obtained should confirm the addition of
this height.
Depth shown and actual depth:
The depth reading might not reflect the real depth if your Locator picks up the signal induced
into the service by the Transmitter. This signal is radiated from the centre of the service.
This is even more important when the signal is produced by a Sonde, lying in a large diam-
eter conduit!
Precautions:
Always compensate depth reading for service size.
d1 Depth shown on the Sonel = depth to the
centre of the line.
d2 Actual depth of the service.
Note the difference between d1 and d2 !
