Plan above-ground locating
Understand the camera transmitter, compatible receiver and kit options before selecting a locating setup.

Find replacement parts and check compatibility with your model before ordering a head, guide or other accessory.

- Access: note the smallest pipe section, entry opening, tight bends and known obstructions. Head diameter alone does not establish bend clearance.
- Reach: estimate the inspected route and handling needs. Nominal cable length is not guaranteed usable reach.
- Locating: verify transmitter and receiver compatibility and whether the selected kit includes both. Cable travel is not burial depth.
- Recording: test a saved clip and playback on the device you use for customer handoff.
A camera documents accessible pipe conditions; it does not clear a blockage or establish the location of every underground utility.
Build a repeatable end-of-job routine
Save and review the inspection files. Note areas you could not inspect. Follow your model’s instructions for cleaning, drying, charging and cable storage before the next job.
Build your job-fit brief
Use these prompts before comparing kits or contacting Powerwill. They help narrow the equipment choice without assuming one setup fits every line.
- Pipe and entry
- Record the smallest pipe diameter, material, access opening and bends.
- Required reach
- Estimate the route from the entry point, including turns; distinguish cable length from usable reach.
- Handling
- Note stairs, vehicle storage, carry distance and whether a wheeled reel suits the site.
- Locating
- Specify whether you already own a receiver, its model and supported sonde frequency.
- File handoff
- State whether you need saved video, still images, notes and playback on a particular device.
- Existing equipment
- Provide the camera model, selected configuration and a connector photo when asking about parts.

Before every job / after every job
Before: test the complete setup
- Check the model instructions, cable and connectors for visible damage.
- Confirm power, lighting and a usable image before insertion.
- Save a short test recording and replay it on the intended handoff device.
- If locating is required, test the compatible transmitter and receiver together before the job.
After: prepare for the next inspection
- Save the original files and record inaccessible or obscured sections.
- Clean and dry the equipment according to its instructions; do not assume the monitor or connectors can be immersed.
- Inspect and store the cable without sharp bends or crushing.
- Follow the supplied battery and charger instructions.
