Have you considered a circuit tracer? Even though these are used to pick out which circuit breaker your transmitter is connected to, the neutral also emitts a tracable signal. One end us usually grounded. Place your transmitter on the other end.

If you are looking for cable length in new duct bank installations you use a shop vac blower to blow a poly jet line string thru conduit. You then pull a small rope thru and measure string for cable pulls. It works best with a making tape ball on head of string..
A clockwork toy with a piece of thread tied to its tail can sometimes be used to get a draw-cord into a conduit (from personal experience).
