SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

Safety Precautions

  1. Inspect the Tool:
    • Before use, inspect the insulated long nose pliers for any signs of damage, wear, or defects.
    • Ensure that the insulation on the handles is intact and free from cracks or breaks.
  2. Choose the Right Tool:
    • Use the appropriate size and type of insulated long nose pliers for the task at hand.
    • Ensure that the tool is designed for the voltage levels you will be working with.
  3. Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
    • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as insulated gloves and safety glasses, when working with electrical tools.
  4. Work in De-Energized Conditions:
    • Whenever possible, work on electrical systems when they are de-energized to minimize the risk of electric shock.
  5. Isolate the Area:
    • If working on live circuits is necessary, isolate the area to prevent unauthorized access and ensure the safety of yourself and others.
  6. Use Insulated Tools:
    • Insulated long nose pliers are specifically designed for electrical work. Always use tools with proper insulation to prevent electrical conductivity through the tool.
  7. Avoid Water and Moisture:
