It is understood that wire pliers, commonly known as wire pliers, pliers, or electrician pliers, are commonly used by electricians to cut or clamp wires, metal wires, and workpieces. The structure of steel wire pliers mainly consists of a pliers head and a pliers handle, and the pliers head is composed of four working ports: a pliers mouth, a tooth mouth, a cutting edge, and a cutting edge. The pliers mouth is used for bending and clamping the wire head; Teeth are used to rotate screws and nuts; Knife edges are used to cut wires, pull out iron nails, and exploit insulation layers; The cutting edge is used to cut hard metal wires, such as iron wire. There are three commonly used wire pliers for electricians: 150mm, 175mm, and 200mm. When using, it is generally operated with the right hand, with the blade of the pliers facing inward, that is, towards the operator, for easy control of the cutting position. Then extend your little finger between the two pliers handles to press against them and open the pliers head, making it more flexible to separate the pliers handles.
The precautions for using wire pliers are as follows:
1) Before use, check whether the insulation of the insulating handle is intact;
2) When cutting live wires, it is not possible to cut both the phase and zero lines simultaneously;
3) Do not use the cutting edge to cut the steel wire to avoid damaging the cutting edge;
4) After the insulation pipe of the clamp handle is damaged, it should be replaced in a timely manner and cannot be reluctantly used to prevent accidents caused by the clamp head touching live parts during operation.
