Just like pretty much everyone on this topic have said.. Im also new to this website and generally the electrical trade as well. (Only registered to this site yestersay) I live in Trowbridge n work for an electrician based in Winsley/Bradford-on-Avon. I only started Sept 07.
Ive actually gt 2 jobs, one with the electrcian 40 hours a week and I also work 14 hours in tesco which is a bit random.. but hey it gets me money.
Im slowly but surely getting to understand the basics but its hard rememberin it all lol.
Already a 'tool tart' lol im obsessed. 1st question which im sure u lot have already discussed hundreds of times: Whats the best make of side cutters? / What size do u lot use? 200mm?
Is it absolutely necessary to get a pair of cutters that are 1000v tested? I suppose the answer is a bit obvious .
One guy in my company uses knipex sidecutters EAN: 74 01 200
pliers-online.com :: Online-Catalogue
they're plastic coated but not 1000v tested.. he's had them for the last years apparently and im sure hes cut through a live before!
the reason y I say it is cos I want a pair like those
yeh anyway ive rambled on, just interested in what side cutters u lot use personally
thanks james.
