The TrueLength cable length meter measures cable length and generates tone for electrical contractors, datacom contractors and installers, and service provider technicians. It works on virtually any single or two conductor cable and helps users find and repair existing cable problems or verify new installations quickly. TrueLength includes 12 pre-set and 12 user-programmable wire gauge settings and offers four selectable tones when in tone generation mode. It measures resistance at 0 to 635 Ohms and opens/capacitance 45 pf to 0.082 uf.
