The Genny4 is the signal generator that turns a C.A.T4 into a complete locating system. Its patented dual-frequency output and Signal Boost make small, deep and difficult cables far easier to find — apply the signal by induction, direct connection or clamp.
A C.A.T4 on its own finds signals that already radiate underground. Pair it with a Genny4 and you can apply your own known signal to a target line — then trace it accurately. Because every C.A.T4 reads the Genny4’s dual frequencies simultaneously, even small-diameter cables and spurs stand out clearly.
Applies the dual-frequency locate signal, with Signal Boost for depth and distance.
Reads both Genny signals at once to trace and avoid buried utilities before you dig.
The Genny4 energises the target utility using whichever method the site allows — from a quick induction sweep to a direct connection.
Stand the Genny4 over the ground to radiate the signal onto nearby buried lines — the fastest way to start a sweep with no connection needed.
Clip the signal directly onto an accessible conductor or valve for a strong, targeted trace on one specific line.
Apply the signal safely around a live cable or pipe with an accessory clamp — no need to interrupt the supply.
A simple workflow that pairs the Genny4 with a C.A.T4 to find and follow buried utilities with confidence.
Energise the buried utility with the Genny4 using induction, direct connection or a signal clamp.
The patented dual-frequency signal helps locate small-diameter cables like telecoms and street lighting, including spurs.
Switch on Signal Boost so the locate signal travels further, reaches deeper and couples onto utilities more easily.
C.A.T4 detects both Genny signals simultaneously for confident tracing and avoidance before you dig.
The Genny4’s patented simultaneous dual-frequency output makes it far easier to pick up small-diameter services — telecoms, street lighting and their spurs — that a single frequency can miss. Every C.A.T4 model detects both signals at the same time.
A dedicated power boost increases the output signal so operators can locate utilities deeper and over greater distances. When a line runs long or deep, Boost keeps the trace strong from end to end.
The Genny4 is designed to pair straight out of the case with a C.A.T4 as a complete gCAT4 locating system — light to carry, quick to deploy and dependable across everyday utility avoidance and survey work.
Pair the Genny4 with the clamps, leads and connectors that make applying a signal faster and more reliable.
Apply the Genny signal safely around a live cable or pipe without interrupting the supply.
