Question 1

When auditing a street works site prior to excavation, what is the supervisor's primary legal duty regarding utility plant plans under HSG47?

Rely on visual surface indicators such as valve covers and scar lines without checking physical plans Assume utility plans are unnecessary if the proposed excavation depth is less than 500 mm Ensure up-to-date utility plans for all relevant asset owners are available on site and verified by the work crew before ground breaking Obtain utility plans only after encountering an unexpected underground apparatus

Correct Answer:

Ensure up-to-date utility plans for all relevant asset owners are available on site and verified by the work crew before ground breaking

Question 2

During a routine site audit, a supervisor checks the Cable Avoiding Tool (CAT). What is the minimum requirement regarding CAT calibration validity?

The CAT must hold a valid, up-to-date calibration certificate (typically annual) and pass daily function checks before use Calibration is required only if the unit suffers a physical impact or drops into water Calibration certificates are valid for 5 years regardless of manufacturer recommendations Daily self-test routines eliminate the need for formal laboratory calibration certificates

Correct Answer:

The CAT must hold a valid, up-to-date calibration certificate (typically annual) and pass daily function checks before use

Question 3

A supervisor observes an operative attempting to measure line depth using a CAT in 'Power' passive mode. Why must the supervisor stop this practice?

Power mode depth readings are accurate only when the ground is completely dry Depth measurement can only be performed when the Genny is set to Radio mode CAT units are physically incapable of calculating depth under any mode Depth measurement mode on a CAT is only accurate when used in conjunction with a Genny direct connection or signal clamp

Correct Answer:

Depth measurement mode on a CAT is only accurate when used in conjunction with a Genny direct connection or signal clamp

Question 4

When auditing an active signal sweep using induction mode, what distance should the Signal Generator (Genny) maintain from adjacent buried metallic pipes to prevent signal bleed-over?

No minimum distance is required as induction signals only energize targeted target pipes At least 10 to 15 metres from adjacent utilities or metallic structures Exactly 0.5 metres to ensure maximum signal transfer At least 50 metres in all directions regardless of site geometry

Correct Answer:

At least 10 to 15 metres from adjacent utilities or metallic structures

Question 5

In direct connection mode, where should the supervisor verify that the Genny ground earth stake has been placed relative to the target line?

At a 90-degree angle to the direction of the target pipe or cable, positioned as far as the lead allows Directly parallel and within 100 mm of the target pipe Clamped directly onto the metal casing of an adjacent high-voltage cable Inserted into dry topsoil adjacent to the Genny handle

Correct Answer:

At a 90-degree angle to the direction of the target pipe or cable, positioned as far as the lead allows
