Tracing of PE pipes is achieved by inserting a tracing wire and sonde through the 'live access tool'. The tracer wire and sonde is energised by use of a standard above ground signal generator and located by a cable avoidance tool. The 'live access tool' has been specifically designed using our unique Stargland™ gas seal technology.
