Principle of Operation

Briefly explain the principle of a metallic pipe and cable detector.
.
Electromagnetic waves are propagating through the ground at relatively low frequencies. This detector utilizes this property
A current is generated in a pipe by a transmitter, and a magnetic field is generated by the induced current.
This detector picks up the magnetic field by a receiver to detect a buried pipe.
