When working with electricity, it's imperative that you have the right tools & today we will be talking about the best screwdrivers for electricians.
If you're working on electrical repairs or installing new wiring, having a quality equipment such as screwdriver or screwdriver sets in your tool box will get you through your jobs efficiently & safely.
Insulated screwdrivers are the best and safest option for electricians. Covered in layers of non conductive material, insulated screwdrivers have been specifically designed to protect you from getting electrical shocks when working on repairs. At HSS, we have a variety of insulated screwdrivers, to buy, that can work on live equipment that every electrician will want as part of their tool collection.
There are many screwdriver heads that electricians will need to use for different jobs.
Phillips Head - The Phillips screwdriver head is one of the more commonly used types. They have "X" head that looks like a pointed cross to fit into cross-slot screws. Designed with an ergonomic soft-grip handle, you'll get through jobs comfortably and most importantly, safely. We have a selection of quality insulated Phillips screwdrivers for you to choose from.
Slotted Head - Screws with a straight line down the centre will need a slotted head screwdriver to either loosen or tighten them. Also known as flat head screw heads, slotted head insulated screwdrivers provide you with excellent grip and it's flat surface also prevents the tool from rolling away. You can find some insulated slotted screwdrivers on our website.
Pozidriv Head - When more torque is required, you're going to need a pozidriv screwdriver. They have been designed so the screwdriver head doesn't cam out (when the screwdriver slips out the head of a screw) when the turn of a screw exceeds a certain amount. If a screw cams out frequently, it can get damaged and will need replacing. At HSS, we have a selection of pozidriv screwdrivers that you'll want to add to your tool kit.
There are plenty of electrical jobs that require insulated screwdrivers from replacing light cover switches, fixing or installing new plug sockets, working on plug sockets to checking appliances and machinery & more.
