The utility model relates to the technical field of electrical installation, in particular to an electrical installation threading device which comprises a bottom plate, a winding frame fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate, a winding drum arranged in the winding frame, rotating shafts fixedly connected to two ends of the winding drum, a rotating handle fixedly connected to one end of a front-end rotating shaft, and a driving chain wheel fixedly connected to one end of a rear-end rotating shaft. The driving chain wheel and the driven chain wheel are connected through a chain; the reciprocating rod is sleeved with a reciprocating plate; a through hole is formed in the reciprocating plate; a convex block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole; the inner wall of the reciprocating frame is fixedly connected with limiting rods. According to the winding device, the reciprocating plate reciprocates along the reciprocating rod while the winding drum rotates, a plastic steel wire can move towards the right side, and the situation that the plastic steel wire is knotted and difficult to pull can be avoided by reversely rotating the rotating handle.

A device includes a spool; a fish tape wound on the spool; a magnet coupled to the spool; a sensor configured to detect the magnet and to generate a signal indicative of the detection; and a controller in communication with the sensor and configured to determine an extension of the fish tape based on the signal; and output the determined amount.

Disclosed is an improved fish tape and housing. Generally, the disclosed fish tape and housing includes: a modified and scaled fiberglass, metallic or plastic tape designed for accurately measuring the total length of round pipes; a modified tip for the tape that prevents damage to copper piping of a refrigerant piping system; and a housing containing the tape such that the tape is extractable from the housing and wherein the housing includes squeegee that wipes clean the tape as it is extracted from the housing.

A cable cap for a heating cable, and a heating cable assembly including a heating cable and a cable cap, in which the cable cap includes a power indicator that illuminates when sufficient power is supplied to the distal end of the heating cable. The indicator gives an installer or a user an indication that the heating cable is functioning properly the entire length of the heating cable. The cable cap may further include a connection feature, such as an aperture, that provides a connection point for a cable pulling device such as a fish tape.

Various embodiments of wire pulling tools are provided. In various embodiments, the wire pulling tools described herein facilitate users pulling fish tape through spaces, such as enclosed spaces. In various embodiments, the wire pulling tools described herein facilitate coupling one or more flexible elongate structures to a fish tape, thereby permitting one or more flexible elongate structures to be pulled through the selected space.

A reel device configured for use with a fish tape is provided. The reel device includes a first body part and a second body part that engage to form a frame receivable within a cut-out portion of a fish tape housing. The frame may include side walls, corner portions, extension portions, lips, grooves, projections, and reinforcement ribs that provide structural stability and alignment with the housing. An extension arm projects from the frame and supports a rotational assembly including a knob. The knob is rotatable relative to the frame and coupled through a screw and bearing arrangement, enabling continuous retraction of a fish tape wire into the housing with reduced user effort. The geometry of the frame may be square, polygonal, circular, or curved to conform to different fish tape housings.
