CABLE PULLING
ACCESSORIES.
Cable-pulling accessories are a group of additional equipment and
tools that are used to facilitate the process of pulling electrical cables
through conduits and other tight spaces.
These accessories are designed to make the cable-pulling process
easier and more efficient and to help ensure the safety of the
electricians and other professionals performing the work.
Some common cable-pulling

accessories include :
cable pulling lubricant, which reduces friction and protects
the cable insulation during the pulling process,

the conduit and prevent twisting or tangling.
cable-pulling eyes which are attachments used to guide the
cable through the conduit.
cable pulling tape, used to hold the cable in place while it is
being pulled.
cable puller tension meter, a device that measures the
tension on the cable during the pulling process and helps to
ensure that the cable is being pulled with the correct
amount of force.
Cable-pulling gloves and safety equipment such as helmets,
goggles, and harnesses are also considered cable-pulling
accessories that ensure the safety of electricians and other
professionals performing the work.
