Electrical power cable preparation system

A system comprising:

• an electrical cable preparation device configured to cut at least one layer of an electrical cable, the electrical cable preparation device comprising at least one cutting tool;
• and
• at least one computing device configured to:
• determine an actual cutting distance of the electrical cable preparation device;
• determine whether the actual cutting distance satisfies a target cutting distance;
• and
• perform at least one operation based on determining whether the actual cutting distance satisfies a target cutting distance,
• wherein the actual cutting distance is an actual cutting depth and the target cutting distance is a target cutting depth or the actual cutting distance is an actual cutback length and the target cutting distance is a target cutback length;
• and
• at least one camera configured to output image data representing one or more images of the electrical cable, and wherein the at least one computing device is configured to determine whether the actual cutting distance satisfies the target cutting distance based at least in part on the image data.
