Height of the pole or trunking
Not knowing if the dimension referred to is the length of the powerpole body alone or whether it includes the floor boot and top shroud, if it's described the same way as these Colonne simple face & Colonne double face
and the Colonnes Standards below, then I would choose 'Height of pole' https://www.rexel.fr/frx/Catégorie/Réseau-informatique/Coffr...
https://www.rexel.fr/frx/Catégorie/Réseau-informatique/Coffr...
And a selection of others https://www.rexel.fr/frx/Poteau,-potelet-et-équipement-résea...
This is the same things from another manufacturer - this time called Colonnes Standards
https://www.materielelectrique.com/content/fichiers_produits...
In English they are called power poles or powerpoles, or powerposts if they are not floor to ceiling. Here are some examples

I would say the same for shaft, Andrew, but at least I have something to back up my translation. I would also appreciate it if you could direct your comments to Johannes directly to him and not via feedback to my suggestions.

Tony M
: I wouldn't use 'pole' if for EN-GB, but it is indeed literally a form of vertical trunking.

Thanks Tony, not knowing if the measurement related to the trunking part alone or to the whole powerpole unit was my dilemma.

Note from asker:
| Thanks. How do you get from "fut" to "shaft"? |
Peer comment(s):

Mpoma
: "shaft" is definitely one meaning of fût, especially when the context is columns.

Tony M
: This would be fine if it were a stone pillar, for example; but here, I don't for one moment believe it is the same idea, and I don't think this term would be the correct one to use.

French term (edited):
Hauteur du fût
Height of duct
Not my subject area, especially, but purely on a "Replace this word" basis, power and computer wires, gas pipes, water pipes, etc. are tidied away from sight in ducts or similar.
Low confidence.

For me at least, 45 x 45 is too small for a shaft, thinking of lift shafts, for example, but again, I don't claim huge expertise in this subject area.
Low confidence.

I have not succeeded in finding a genuine English-language site with the product. French sites call it a 'column'.

But it's a Legrand document.
