IED Clearance Good Practice Guide

ADDITIONAL IED INDICATORS AND GROUND SIGNS RECORDED DURING IED CLEARANCE ACTIVITIES

Image 85. Image showing the sign in detail. Note the wire protruding from the corner

When the MA searcher / deminer is 4–5 m from the sign that was originally reported at the south-eastern corner, it is interpreted as follows: • A wire projecting from above the corner junction of the wall by approximately 100 mm. This is assessed to be the receiver element of an RCIED. There is also a potential wire running down the wall. This is identified by colour change (red). • A linear area of disturbance running from the corner into the road. Assessed to be an electrical link. • The circular disturbance on the route is assessed to conceal the IED’s main charge.
