H. Finding Height of Pole chance for underestimating this, or of askingfor a 35 foot pole where a 30 foot pole wouldserve. The Matthews Teleheight is a little instrumentdesigned to get the exact height of the polenecessary, and to add five feet to this on thereading of the scale. In using it, the linemanmeasures with a tape a distance of 75 feet fromthe point directly under the object which it isdesired to cross. From this distance he sightsthrough the peck hole in the Teleheight at thetop of the tree or obstruction. By turning a thumb screw at the side, he rotates a spirit leveluntil its bubble is seen crossing the line throughwhich he has sighted the top of the object. Apointer on the scale then indicates the exactheight of the pole necessary to clear the objectfive feet and allows for the proper depth of thehole according to specifications of the NationalElectric Light Association. The scale has arange covering 25 foot poles up to and i
