Pliers
You work on circuits up to 1000 volts and need pliers that can handle it. Find crimping pliers, cutting pliers and combination pliers with insulated handles. Check the length, because it determines how much space you have. Choose the right jaw shape for your task. Some pliers have a hole for a lanyard. The insulation meets DIN ISO standards. Compare the jaw opening and the number of pieces to select the correct version.
Pliers for high voltage up to 1000 V
What you choose them for
You work on live parts up to 1000 volts and need pliers that can handle it. Here you find crimping pliers, cutting pliers and combination pliers with insulated handles. The length determines how much reach you have and how you get to the cable. Choose the pliers that fit the job, not the biggest ones you own.
Where ordering goes wrong
Size and jaw shape decide whether your pliers fit. A bent jaw reaches spots a straight one cannot. Check the length in millimetres, because that is what you get in reach. In doubt between two sizes? Look at High-Voltage & Insulated Tools for the full range.
Where to look next
Mostly working on screws? Then take insulated screwdrivers. For nuts and bolts, check insulated spanners. That way you build your set per job.
