The Radiodetection C.A.T4+ cable avoidance tool allows ground workers to accurately detect, map and check how deep underground utility services such as power cables, data/telecoms supplies, pipe work and other structures are when excavating.
It is important to note that the CAT4+ cable avoidance tool is recommended for use alongside Radiodection’s Genny4 Signal Generator (select above if required). This allows for locating services that do not generate an electromagnetic field or radio signal, in order for them to be detected by the C.A.T4+ alone.
Moreover, and in addition to the standard C.A.T4, the CAT4+ features a depth function. When used in ‘genny mode’ (which requires use of the Genny4), the instrument will display a depth indication to a located utility service. Note the depth measurements can be displayed as either Metric or Imperial units - please be sure to let us know which unit is preferred upon ordering.
The C.A.T4+ includes the integrated ‘StrikeAlert’ function that displays the location of services that are buried at a shallow depth, which could potentially cause a ‘strike’ risk if left undetected.
The C.A.T4+ features 4 modes to assist in detecting different utility types; avoidance mode, genny mode, power mode and radio mode:
Genny mode - used to detect signals generated by the optional Radiodetection Genny4 Signal Generator. Also displays depths of buried utilities when used with the C.A.T4+ cable avoidance tool

The Radiodetection C.A.T4+ cable avoidance tool is compatible with number of Radiodetection accessory packs. Each pack contains a Genny4 signal locator and soft carry case as standard with further accessories detailed below:
Simply check the box with the kit required when you place your order and your C.A.T4+ cable avoidance tool will be shipped with your chosen accessory pack.
Featuring an innovative integrated logic design, the The Radiodetection Genny 4 provides a revolutionary dual-frequency signal output. Together with the familiar 33 kHz locate signal for general purpose utility tracing, the Genny 4 can also transmit a second frequency designed to locate smaller cables such as telecoms, data and street lighting. For more complicated applications, the Genny 4 also features a new power boost function that enables the frequency signal to travel further and deeper into the ground, whilst coupling onto utilities more easily.
