How do you measure cable, wire or rope accurately?

Electrical
Estimating & Takeoff

Wire and cable get measured by laying them out and counting sections, which needs floor space you do not have and loses a foot at every join. Feeding the run past the measuring wheel on the M1 Caliber reads length as it passes, so you pull to a cut length instead of estimating one. On a takeoff that is the difference between ordering a reel and ordering the right reel.

Run it through the tool instead of stretching it out. A 3D printed attachment feeds cable, wire or rope past the measuring wheel on the M1 Caliber, so the length is read as it passes rather than laid out on the floor and measured in sections. Useful when you are pulling to a cut length.
