Basic Electrical Tools: Part 2

Here are some of the screwdriver type tools. This is a wire nut wrench. When you're putting two wires together and you're splicing them together, so this wire nut wrench comes in very handy and you can just turn and it twists itself for you. Here's a standard 5 head screwdriver, this is a bent shaft Phillips tip screwdriver and this is an expanding flathead screwdriver. My favorite screwdriver ever is a 10 in 1, it's got all different kinds of compartments, pieces all different for all different sizes of different kinds of screwdrivers. We've got sets of Allen wrenches. I like to carry a level with me because I like to have my stuff looking clean when I run some wire or some pipe, just slap the level on there right quick, it makes it a lot easier.
