VDE 1000V Equipment: Insulated Tools for Electrical Installations

VDE insulated tools are used to work on live electrical installations while reducing the risk of electric shock. They are tested to standard EN 60900 for voltages up to 1000 V AC (1500 V DC).

What you will find in the collection

• Insulated pliers and cutters: universal pliers, wire strippers and cutters with insulated handles.
• Insulated screwdrivers: ranges, sets with interchangeable inserts and precision screwdrivers.
• Mixed sets in a pouch or case, ready for the electrician.
• Electrical insulating gloves and protective over-gloves, to complete the safety kit.

How to choose

Always look for the VDE marking with the double-triangle symbol and the 1000 V indication on the tool. Choose the set according to the jobs you do most often: for panels and terminal blocks you need screwdrivers in various sizes and a wire stripper. Before every use, check that the insulation is intact and replace the tool if it is cut or chipped. Insulating gloves must be chosen by voltage class and stored without folds.
