The string on my new 7838 is 76cm. This is why the length of wires and strings
should be rather given something like "about 75cm", not "75cm" or not "15 studs".

That's what the entry means. 75cm means about or at least 75cm long.

That's what the entry means. 75cm means about or at least 75cm long.

I did not know it meant that and I still don't know what part of the entry
means that neither. I have seen many people confused when listing these wire/assmbely
itmes. Some mentioned in their listing "the wire is 1cm short"...
I meatured 5 wires that comes with wire
 
Set No: 7722  Name: Steam Cargo Train, battery
* 
7722-1 (Inv) Steam Cargo Train, battery
466 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 1 Book, 1985
Sets: Train: 4.5V
and they were 2cm of difference (max length - min length= 2cm)
Not only many people are confused, so were some catalog admins. Here we have
these two entries, probably the same:
[s=765c96]
and
[s=766c94]

The other level of confusion is whether the length of wires include the connectors
or not. I think it is better we do not, because if an item is named something
like
"Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V with two 2-prong connectors, with wire of approximate
length 40cm"
then we can inventory the item with "wire of approximate length 40cm" so less
confusion. Then the same entry for wire can be used to create other wire/connector
assembly like
"Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V with two 2-prong connectors without middle pin, with
wire of approximate length 40cm"
or
"Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V with male Squared Wide Short Connector and Male Squared
Narrow Long Connector, with wire of approximate length 40cm"

They can all be inventories with
"wire of approximate length 40cm".
