The term “standard probe” in the context of utility locating typically refers to a probing accessory used in conjunction with utility locators or cable avoidance tools (CATs). Here’s what you need to know about a standard probe:

  1. Purpose: A standard probe is used to manually verify the location and depth of buried utilities detected by a utility locator or CAT. It allows the user to physically probe the ground to confirm the presence and position of underground utilities.
  2. Design: Stadard probes typically consist of a long, slender metal rod with a pointed tip. The rod is inserted into the ground at locations where the utility locator indicates the presence of a buried utility. Some standard probes may have additional features such as depth markings to help determine the depth of the utility.
  3. Material: are commonly made from durable materials such as stainless steel or aluminum to withstand the rigors of fieldwork and provide long-term durability.
  4. Length: probes come in various lengths to accommodate different utility locating tasks and ground conditions. Longer probes may be used for deeper excavations or when working in areas with thick layers of soil or pavement.
  5. Handle: Many standard probes feature a handle or grip near the top end to provide a comfortable and secure grip for the user during probing operations.
  6. Applications:probes are widely used by construction workers, utility technicians, and infrastructure maintenance crews to verify the location and depth of buried utilities before excavation or construction activities. They help prevent accidental damage to underground utilities and ensure safety on job sites.
