Equipotential everywhere
Hydrovac crews excavate inches away from energized infrastructure. Give them the steps to position mats, bond working components, and create equipotential zones before they daylight or expose utilities.
Plan smart.
Dig confidently.
Protect your Hydrovac and daylighting crew by teaching them hazard identification, bonding, and incident response through scenarios from real field work. This course helps keep every boot, boom, and hose at the same potential before any excavation begins.
Safe.
Efficient.
Field-tested.
Strip away theory and focus on the step-by-step setup: establishing a plan, verifying equipment continuity, positioning mats and applying bonds before exposing utilities.
- Complex hazards in plain language
- No special facilitators or hardware required
- Current hydrovac incident learnings
Cover the whole crew
Add complementary bonding courses so daylighting teams, vacuum operators, and plant staff work from the same playbook.
