From the days when I worked on sites doing Sound Insulation Testing (part E of building regs) for Osborne Homes, Barratt Southern Counties and other largish companies that stipulated gloves and goggles amongst other stuff, we just used bog-standard black or grey gloves - Nothing special.

I don't think the electricians had anything special either.

The strange thing was that even the site managers who wore the basic gloves, cut the fingers off theirs about halfway, so their fingers were exposed... Seems a little counter to the use of them in the first place!
