Damaged Cable Identification HIT Kit™ & HIT Kit +2™
Rhino HIT Kits are used to enhance root cause investigations and to accurately record damage to buried facilities such as fiber optic cable, pipelines, electrical lines and more. Use of the HIT Kit in your investigation enables consistent documentation across your organization by using a standard tool to record every incident. High visibility Damage and Mark posts allow you to photograph the excavation site from different angles and provide a better perspective of the damage or near miss. Use of the HIT Kit +2 allows photographing an even larger area and also assists in extrapolating the locate marks for a clearer depiction of the scene. Use of the Rhino HIT Kit or HIT Kit +2 can reduce unnecessary and costly legal actions when damage occurs.

Before You Dig...
Industry Best Practices advise excavators to document markings BEFORE digging. Common Ground Alliance (CGA) Excavation Best Practice 5.11 states: An excavator uses dated pictures, videos or sketches with distance from markings to fixed objects recorded, to document the actual placement of markings.

Why?
The primary purpose of this best practice is to avoid unnecessary litigation and expensive legal fees for all parties involved.

If You Hit
Photograph the excavation site from different angles to provide various perspectives of the damage.

Protect Your Interests
This simple kit can save you the time and expense of legal proceedings.

The Rhino HIT Kit comes in a convenient carrying bag and is easy to assemble and use.

Using the HIT Kit before and after digging provides a consistent means of documenting the markings at excavation sites.
