The production, transmission and use of electrical energy are complex and highly dangerous processes. At each stage listed, various machines and mechanisms are used, which should be handled with great care. Electric power generators, depending on the rated power, have various designs and sizes. In order to service them, you need a special set of electrician, which contains the appropriate tools and devices. At the same time, completely different devices are required for the adjustment and repair of instrumentation and automatic devices.
Depending on the type of equipment, a
set of tools for an electrician may contain different items, although the main positions are present in each configuration. Nippers are designed to cut wires and wire. When working on live parts of electrical installations, you can use such tools only with rubberized handles. This is a mandatory safety requirement. The second universal tool of this type is pliers. They are more universal, since they can be used to perform several operations. Any set of electrician without this item will be defective.
Every professional or home craftsman should have at least three screwdrivers in his kit: with a straight sting, a Phillips one and an indicator one. The latter serves to determine the presence of voltage in the line or device. A set of electricians, as a rule, contains several screwdrivers of different sizes and for different heads of fasteners. When setting up electronic control systems, extremely thin, so-called precision screwdrivers for microscopic adjustment screws are required. The kit may also include tools with interchangeable nozzles, which have become widely used in recent years.
For the repair of various devices, the construction of which includes an electric motor, wrenches are always required. Suppose that it is not known in advance what size bolts and nuts will have to be unscrewed during repair. Then you need to add an adjustable wrench to the electrician's kit . With it, you can work with bolts of any size. It is advisable to always have a set of socket heads with a collar and extension cord at hand. When repairing cable communications, special soldering kits are used. There is nothing special about them - just a soldering iron with
dstavka, flux and solder. Very often rosin is used as a flux.
Various measuring instruments are added to the electrician's tool kit. Most often, this is a simple tester with which you can measure voltage, current and resistance. Roulette and vernier caliper determine the linear dimensions of physical objects. To all of the above, you need to add knives of different sizes and configurations. With their help, insulation is removed from the wires. A set of files and a hacksaw for metal are also suitable . When performing certain tasks, tweezers may be required. It is very important that all tools are placed in a convenient bag or case. When working, each item should be located, as they say, at hand.
