Jeff Trowbridge, a 19-year veteran in the underground community, leads each class with the goal of providing insightful and practical lessons learned from the field while encouraging participants to share their best practices. Attendees learn how to identify a grounding source, how to build a proper circuit to aid in a successful locate, locator theory, and troubleshooting steps to take to correct problems in the field. Each attendee is encouraged to bring their own locator device to the course so they are able to practice with the equipment that they use day to day. In addition to the locator training provided by Jeff, representatives from Missouri 811 also provide an overview of the one-call process.
