(23 cards)
hand-held tool known as cable stripper designed to remove insulation or outer sheath
WIRE STRIPPERS
intended for determining conductor sizes (gauges)
DRILLED HOLES
designed to grip, bend, strip & cut NOT ONLY wiring but also cable and small metal components.
LINEMAN’S PLIERS
longer and have a hefteir construction, square-jaw profiles for optimal grip and sharper teeth
LINESMAN PLIERS
multi-purpose pliers primarily hsed to grip, bend and string wiring
COMBINATION PLIERS
cut thin wires and cables and perfect for compressing material
COMBINATION PLIERS
shorter and have a lighter design, with narrow, tapered jaws.
COMBINATION PLIERS
known as needle nose or snipe nose pliers; have a long tapered jaw making them ideal to grip small objects
LONG NOSE
easily insert & remove screws by simply turning the handle of
SCREWDRIVER
common sizes for flat or slotted head tips are
5.5 mm & 8 mm
a tool primarily used for making round holes or driving fasteners
ELECTRIC DRILL
this powerful drill draws power from an outlet & can provide higher torque than most other drills
CORDED DRILL
easier to transport on a tool belt, but have a limited charge requiring u to carry spare batteries or recharge between uses
CORDLESS DRILL
is an electrical work tool that is simple shaped like a small screwdriver, used to detect/test the condition of electric voltage: cables & sockets
TESTER SCREWDRIVER
small device containing a power plug & three indicator lights, used for quickly detecting some type of incorrectly-wired
ELECTRICAL OUTLET TESTER, RECEPTACLE TESTER, OR SOCKET TESTER
known as VOM (volt-ohm-milliammeter) electronic measuring instrument combines several functions in one unit.
MULTIMETER/MULTITESTER
can measure voltage, current, and resistance
TYPICAL MULTIMETER
use a microammeter eith a moving pointer or display readings
ANALOG MULTIMETERS
permits current measurement without inserting it into the circuit.
CLAMP-ON AMMETER
the __ can measure up to 200 A A compared to a maximum of about 10 A for the MULTIMETER
CLAMP-ON AMMETER
small portable instrument that gives u direct reading of insulation resistance ohms or megohms
MEGGER INSULATION TESTER
quality of an electrical system degrades with time, environment condition, temperature, humidity, moisture & dust particles
INSULATION RESISTANCE
an earth tester is a soil resistance measuring instrument; used for sizing and projecting grounding grids
GROUNDING RESISTANCE TESTER
