Cutting Tools

3 Types of Pliers

• Combination Pliers - used for gripping, holding, and cutting electrical wires and cables, usually used by
linemen in doing heavy tasks
• Side Cutting Pliers - used for cutting fine, medium, big wires and cables.

Electrician’s Knife - Used by linemen to remove insulation of wire and cables in low and high voltage
transmission lines.
Hacksaw - This tool is used to cut metal conduit and armoured cable.

What are electrical supplies and materials?

- A device that can:

1. Control the flow of current in an electrical circuit;


2. Carry electrical current from the source to the load.
3. Hold and secure wires to its fixtures inside and outside houses and buildings.
4. Protect houses, buildings, appliances, and instruments from destruction and damage.

What are the examples of electrical supplies and materials?

• Convenience Outlet/outlet
• Male plug
• Lamp Holders
• Switch

• Connectors – Metal and Flexible non-metallic connectors

Wire Splices and Joints

What are the Different wire splice and joints?

Rat Tail or Pig Tail – commonly used to join two or more wires inside the junction box
Y-splice - used on small cables because the strands are flexible and can be wrapped in one operation
Wrapped Tap or Tee Joint - Used on large solid conductors where the tap wire is heavily wrapped into the
main wire
Aerial Tap - used as a temporary tap usually done in constructions sites
Knotted Tap - This is used where the tap wire is under heavy tensile stress
Plain Tap Joint - is used where the tap wire is under considerable tensile stress
Cross Joint - The same application is done in plain tap but this tap is a combination of two plain taps placed
side by side with each other
Duplex Cross Joint - Two tap wire turned is turned together
Western Union Short Tie - used to extend the length of wire from one point to another
Western Union Long - Use for outside wiring to extend the length of wire from one end to another
