E,
On "big" wire pulls, I always pull in a "measuring" tape (I think Greenlee makes them). I add some for "make up", I also add some for making a "pulling head". Every pull is different. If you have a large switchgear that you are pulling into, the "make up" (or termination, whatever you want to call it) will be more. To me the most important thing is pulling a string or measuring tape into the run of conduit. That way mistakes are less likely to happen.

Wired,
Doc
