DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TOOLS AND
MATERIALS
 TOOLS MATERIALS
-a device or implement, especially
one held in the hand, used to carry
out a particular function
-instrument or simple piece of  -the matter from which a
equipment that you hold in thing is or can be made
your hands and use to do a
particular kind of work
 ELECTRICAL TOOLS AND
EQUIPMENT
Electrical task can be accomplished systematically to save time,
effort, and resources. Most of the work cannot be done using
bare hands. To do the task, electrical tools or equipment are
needed to perform the job. This lesson will discuss the
function/use of each tool or equipment used in electrical wiring
installations.
The following are common electrical tools
and equipment needed in the installation
of electrical wiring.
I. Screw drivers. These tools are made of steel
hardened and tempered at the tip used to loosen or
tighten screws with slotted heads. They come in various
sizes and shapes.

A.Standard/Flat Screw Driver.

B.Philips Screw Driver.
C.Stubby Screw Driver.
D.Allen Screw Driver/Wrench.
A. Standard/Flat Screw Driver.
The blade tip is wedge-shaped
and resembles a negative (-)
sign. This is used to drive
screws with a single slot head
B. Philips Screw Driver.
This has a cross tip
resembling a positive (+)
sign. This is used
to drive screws with cross
slot heads.
C. Stubby Screw Driver. It
comes in either Standard or
Philips screw driver with short
shank or blade and a shorted
handle used to turn screws in
tight space where standard
screw driver cannot be used.
D. Allen Screw Driver/Wrench.
This could be in the shape of a
screw driver or a wrench. Its
function is to drive screw with
hexagonal slot head.
II. Hammers. These are tools used in driving or
pounding and pulling out nails. They are made of hard
steel, wood, plastic or rubber. The following are types of
hammer:
A. Claw hammer
B. Mallet(rubber head)
C. Ballpeen hammer
A.Claw hammer

B. Mallet(rubber head) C. Ballpeen hammer

III. Pliers. These made from metal with
insulators in the handle and are used for
cutting, twisting, bending, holding, and
gripping wires and cables.
A. Combination Pliers (Lineman’s Pliers).
B. Side Cutting Pliers.
C. Long Nose Pliers.
A. Combination Pliers
(Lineman’s
Pliers). This is used for
gripping, holding, and cutting
electrical wires and cables
and even small nails. They
are usually used by linemen
In doing heavy tasks.
B. Side Cutting
Pliers. This type of
pliers is used for
cutting fine, medium
and big wires and
cables.
C. Long Nose Pliers. This is
used for cutting and holding fine
wires. This can reach tight
space or small opening where
other pliers cannot reach and
also used in making terminal
loops of copper wires.
V. Electrician’s knife. This is used by
linemen to remove insulation of wire
and cables in low and high voltage
transmission lines.
VI. Portable electric drill. A small drilling
machine with a chuck capacity of ¼‖ to 3/8‖. It
is used in making holes on metal sheets and
concrete walls.
VII. Hacksaw. This tool is used to cut
metal conduit and armored cable.

N OF
ELECTRICAL
TOOLS
DRIVING TOOL

•any tool used to push (drive) another

object into the wood. Their general
purpose is to connect two pieces of
materials together, or to connect wood to
another material
MEASURING TOOL
•Electrical measuring instruments, from the
name itself, refer to devices used for
measuring various electrical aspects such as
the presence and amount of current, voltage,
resistance and power through installation.
EDGE CUTTING TOOL
• Woodworkers, cabinetmakers, shopkeepers, builders,
electricians and construction workers often refer to edge
cutters. They're typically asking for a tool with two knife-
like edges at the ends, joined by an axle. With two handles
to provide leverage, the cutting edges pinch together to cut
wires, plastic, wood, nails, staples or just about anything
else you can imagine.
BORING TOOL

•In machining, boring is the process of

enlarging a hole that has already
been drilled by means of a single-point
cutting tool
HOLDING TOOLS
•A holding tool is a tool that firmly
holds any material together.
