IDENTIFICATION AND SAFE USE OF

COMMON ELECTRICAL HAND TOOLS AND
POWER TOOLS

CUTTING PLIERS Student and Teacher interactions

while discussion.
• Diagonal cutting pliers, sometimes called side
snips or dikes, ate used to cut wires. They are
specially designed with cutting edge that goes
down to the tip of the jaws, allowing you to get
into tight areas to trim wires. Some types are
solid in a pair along with a voltage detector to
sense live wires. You can also find
combination tools, including wire stripping slots
built into the handles.

LONG NOSE PLIERS

• Another essential specialty electrical tool is a

pair of needle nose pliers ( also called long
nose pliers). It will be used for bending and
twisting wires when making screw terminal
connections. The long, narrow tip makes this
an excellent tool for derailed work. Most
needle nose pliers also include cutting jaws for
trimming wires.
TONGUE AND GROOVE PLIERS

• Tongue and groove pliers are known by

many names, including channel lock, groove
joint, and straight jaws pliers. This tool is often
used for plumbing work, but a pair of tongue
and groove plies also has many uses for
electrical projects. It will frequently remove
knockouts from metal electrical boxes, tighten
cable clamps, and adjust expansion type
ceiling fan boxes.

LINESMAN OR DIAGONAL PLIERS

• A pair of linesman pliers is an electrician’s do

it all tool. It has a squared off end that is great
for twisting wires together, a center cutting
blade for trimming wire, and a grip area

between the handles for pulling wire. Casual

DIYers may be able to get by without this tool,
but anyone who does regular electrical work
will want to own a pair of linesman pliers.

WIRE STRIPPERS

• Another essential electrical specialty tool for

homeowners is a good pair of wire strippers.
Wire strippers are used to cut and strip
insulation from electrical wires. A wire stripper
tool has a row of gauged holes for stripping
wires of different sizes, and it usually includes
cutting jaws for trimming the wire ends.

PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVERS

• Electricians keep screwdrivers with them at

all times for removing and installing cover
plates, outlets, switches, and many other
devices. It’s best to have a few different
lengths of Phillips screwdrivers and #1,#2,
and #3 tip sizes. Screwdrivers with insulating
rubber jackets covering the handles are
designed for better safety when doing
electrical work.

STRAIGHT BLADE SCREWDRIVERS

• As with Phillips screwdriver, you will likely

need more than one size of straight blade
screwdriver. If you have to choose just one,
pick a medium blade; it will suit most projects.
Straight blade screwdrivers are also available
with insulated handles for better safety when
doing electrical work.

ELECTIC SCREWDRIVER

• An electric screwdriver is a portable device

that can screw and unscrew using a battery or
corded power. These tools are handy for more
extensive projects versus manual
screwdrivers, especially when you have many
screws to be installed or removed.

ALLEN WRENCH SET (HEX SET)

• Allen wrenches are used to tighten hex-head

screws, which are sometimes found on ceiling
fans, light fixtures, and appliances. Owning a
metric and a standard set of Allen wrenches is
a good idea.

FISH TAPE

• Fish tape pulls stranded or solid wire

conductors through metal or PVC conduit.
Cable lube can assist you in removing the
through the conduit. Fish tape can also be
helpful when pulling NM cable through wall
cavities. This tool is used when making wiring
improvements, such as adding or extending
circuits. Casual DIYers who make electrical
repairs or replacement rarely need fish tape.

CABLE TRACERS

• When there’s a jumble of wires, and you’re

unsure if the connected wire you’re looking at
is the one you need, a cable finder or tracer
will quickly find cable and wire paths. A cable
tracer used a transmitter and a receiver, or
toner and probe, to send a signal down the
cable, which you can pinpoint using receiver.

TAPE MEASURE OR PUSH PULL RULE

• A standard tape measure is used for all field
measurements, such as setting heights for
switches and outlets, centering lighting fixture
boxes, and marking surfaces for circuits.

VOLTMETER OR MULTIMETER •
A voltmeter reads voltage level and verifies the
circuits are “live” or off. Unlike a circuit tester,
this tool reads how much voltage is being
carried. More sophisticated forms of the device
are known as multimeters, and they can read
voltage level, amperage, resistance, and DC
voltage and amperage. However, they require
practice to learn how to use them properly.
This specialty tool is used mainly by advanced
DIYers and Professional electricians. Casual
DIYers may not need to own this tool, but
those who do a lot of electrical work on
appliances and electronics may find it
essential.

HAMMER

• A hammer is used to secure electrical boxes

equipped with nail-on brackets to wall studs
and other framing member in a home. You'll
also need one to drive wire staples when
anchoring new electrical cables to framing
members.

NON-CONTACT VOLTAGE TESTER

• Perhaps the most crucial specialty electrical

tool you can own is a voltage tester. A voltage
tester is used for quick safety check to ensure
no current is flowing to an electrical wire or
device before you start working on it. Powered
by batteries, non-contact voltage testers are
the simplest and safest testers because they
can detect electricity near an outlet slot or wire.
This is a tool every DIYers needs in the
toolbox. It will be used for virtually every home
electrical repair project.

TORPEDO LEVEL

• A small level, such as a torpedo level, fits

easily in a tool pouch and ensures your work is
level and plumb. A great installation starts with
level boxes and straight switch and outlet
receptacles. A torpedo level should be part of
every homeowner’s standard toolkit; it will
have plenty of uses beyond electrical work.

UTILITY KNIFE

• A utility knife, or box cutter, is handy for

cutting sheathing from non-metallic (Romex)
cable, cutting off electrical tape, and opening
cardboard boxes.

FLASHLIGHT

• Electrical repair and improvement work

involves a lot of dark places, from attics and
basements to wall and ceiling cavities, to the
insides of electrical boxes. A tactical flashlight
is needed as much for safety as for
convenience. A few hand flashlights and a
headlamp are good additions to a DIY
electrician’s toolbox.

HACKSAWS

• Hacksaws were originally and principally

made for cutting metal, but can also cut
various other materials, such as plastic and
wood.

DRILLING EQUIPMENT

• Is use to make holes in building structure for

passage of wire and conduit in both new and
old installation, indoor or outdoor wiring.
SAFE USE OF HAND TOOLS AND POWER
TOOLS

•Keep all tools in good condition with regular

maintenance.

•Use the right tool for the job.

•Examine each tool for damage before use and

do not use damaged tools.

•Operate tools according to the manufacturers’

instructions.

•Provide and use properly the right personal

protective equipment (ie googles, gloves, etc).

 √ Application

The teacher will divide the class into 3 groups The students will cooperate with their
and the teacher will assign each groups what groups while preparing and presenting
they perform into role play.

Instructions:

All you have to do is to demonstrate how to

use properly the hand tools and power tools
and explain the risks that you might encounter
when using the tools improperly.

You will be rated according to our rubrics.
