    Measure the tension of wire or cable. First, determine your wire’s diameter with the notches on the side of these gauges. Then, insert the wire between the two nylon rollers on the bottom and the slot on top to get a needle reading. Using the table on the handle, convert the reading into a tension measurement relative to your wire’s diameter.
