A side-by-side comparison of traditional and touchless locates makes you wonder why anyone would physically access their OSP to locate cables. Read on to save big $$ on your network maintenance budget https://www.norscan.com/traditional-vs-touchless-locates-t/

After coming across an article in ISE Magazine by OSP Expert Don McCarty, we here at Norscan had some interesting internal discussions. The article discusses the relationship between grounding and locating, and suggests that grounding is only required during a locate. We decided to reach out to Don with our comments and he published the exchange in the November 2017 edition of ISE Magazine.

Ground faults can significantly limit the distance your locate signal can travel. Check out our new video to learn how Norscan's Cable Monitoring can alert you when ground faults occur, and how to isolate where those faults are located within your network!

Grounding is essential to both the safety of personnel and damage prevention of your outside plant. Check out the Fall 2017 edition of Damage Prevention Profesional to learn how grounding impacts safety and why proper grounding is important!
