Do not use the handle of the pliers as the head of the pliers.
The use of pliers is operated with the right hand. Turn the jaws inward for easy control of the cutting area. Use your little finger to extend between the two pliers handles to press against them and open the pliers head. This way, the pliers handles can be separated flexibly.
The commonly used wire pliers for electricians come in various specifications such as 150, 175, 200, and 250mm. You can choose according to the needs of the internal or external job types. The teeth of pliers can also be used to tighten or loosen nuts.
The cutting edge of pliers can be used to cut the rubber or plastic insulation layer of soft wires.
The cutting edge of pliers can also be used to cut wires and iron wires. When cutting galvanized iron wire No. 8, use a blade to cut back and forth around the surface a few times, and then gently twist it to break the wire.
The cutting edge can also be used to cut harder metal wires such as wires and steel wires.
The insulated plastic tube of the pliers has a voltage resistance of over 500V, and with it, it can cut wires with electricity. Do not litter during use to avoid damaging the insulated plastic pipe.
Do not use pliers as hammers.
Do not use pliers to cut double stranded live wires, as it may cause a short circuit.
When using pliers to wrap the clamp and fix the cable, clamp the wire with the pliers teeth and wrap it clockwise.
Mouth pliers, commonly known as pointed nose pliers, are also one of the commonly used tools for electricians, especially for interior electricians. Mainly used for cutting thin single and multi strand wires, as well as bending single strand wire joints, peeling plastic insulation layers, etc.
The operation method of bending the wire joint with pointed nose pliers is: first fold the wire head to the left, and then bend it clockwise to the right against the screw. The pointed nose pliers can be slightly modified to be used as wire stripping pointed nose pliers. The method is to drill with an electric drill at the front end of the blade used for cutting thread with pointed nose pliers? 0.8? Two 1.0mm slots, and then slightly expand them with 1.2mm and 1.4mm drill bits respectively. Note: do not expand through, so that these two slots have a thin cutting edge. In this way, a pointed nose pliers that can cut and strip threads has been changed! Wire stripping pliers are one of the commonly used tools for internal line electricians, motor repair, and instrumentation electricians. It is suitable for peeling plastic, rubber insulated wires, and cable cores. The usage method is: place the wire head to be peeled into the cutting edge of the pliers, pinch the two pliers handles with your hand, and then release them, and the insulation skin will detach from the core wire.

Pliers are tools used for fastening, and some pliers also have a cutting function. There are many types of pliers, but they all have a part for clamping materials called the “jaw”. The jaws are controlled by a lever, which can generate a large clamping force. The usage method of pliers: ① In general, the strength of pliers is limited, so it cannot be used to operate tasks that cannot be achieved by ordinary hand force. Especially for smaller or ordinary pointed nose pliers, using them to bend high-strength bar material sheets may damage the jaws. ② A typical pliers have three cutting edges and can only be used to cut iron wire, not steel wire. ③ The handle of the pliers can only be held by hand and cannot be used to apply force by other methods.
