Cómo controlar: underground and concealed services

  1. Get current plans from Before You Dig Australia and the asset owners, and request a site meeting where services are complex or critical.
  2. Plan the job to avoid digging near services, and relocate or de-energise services that cannot be avoided before work starts.
  3. Locate services on site with an electronic locator, and confirm their position by potholing with non-destructive methods such as vacuum excavation before using mechanical plant.
  4. Mark service positions on the ground and on plans, and keep a record of them for any future excavation at the same location.
  5. Dig by hand or with vacuum equipment near marked services, and use a spotter to watch the excavation while plant is working.
  6. If a service is struck, stop work, keep everyone clear and call the asset owner and emergency services, and never repair or cover the damage yourself.
