Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter

  • Measures up to 6 wires, 75ft
  • Measure cable heights quickly and safely

 

The Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter is a smart, handheld tool designed for accurately measuring cable height, sag, and overhead clearances — all from the ground. This modern device replaces outdated telescopic poles with cutting-edge ultrasonic technology, offering a faster, safer and more convenient solution for utility professionals.

Used extensively in the electricity, telecommunications, and construction sectors, the Suparule 600 delivers precise, non-contact measurements for up to six overhead cables, up to 75 feet (23 metres) high. Whether you’re assessing telephone lines or power lines, this unit keeps your team safe — no ladders or risky pole contact needed.

How It Works:

The Suparule 600 Cable Height Meter operates using ultrasonic signals. By simply standing beneath the cables, the device emits sound waves that bounce off the lowest wire. It then calculates the time it takes for the signal to return and converts this into an accurate height reading.

This method means there’s no need to touch or get close to live wires — keeping workers at a safe distance while maintaining efficiency.



Key Applications of the Suparule 600:

  • Telephone lines
  • Power distribution and transmission lines
  • Cable TV installations
  • Street lighting poles
  • Measuring cable sag (lowest point to the ground)
  • Overhead clearance checks on construction sites
  • Rail and road infrastructure safety checks

Whether on a job site or during maintenance operations, the Suparule 600 delivers reliable measurements every time.



✔️ Features and Benefits:

  • Measure up to 6 wires simultaneously — No more guessing – the Suparule 600 handles complex cable bundles with ease.
  • Fast, one-person operation — Get instant results by simply standing beneath the cables and pressing a button.

A. No regular maintenance is needed. It’s a maintenance-free device with high reliability in the field.






Suparule cable height meter diagram

When measuring sloping wires, it is necessary to have an idea of the direction of the slope of the wire. Position the meter with the back of the cone touching the ground, and the face of the cone pointing in the general direction of the wire. Tilt the Meter sideways and/or back and forth, still keeping the back of the cone on the ground, until a valid reading is received.

Note: when measuring multiple cables, they must be parallel to each other to ensure the meter "sees" them. If one or more of the cables has a different slope, then using the same theory described above, the echo returned from that cable may not reach the Meter, and therefore give a null or invalid reading.
