Lab Exercises in Cable Preparation
A basic electrician practical is preparing a cable end for a terminal block. Students measure the cable against a Steel Rule and cut it to length with the side cutter. They slit and remove the outer sheath with the Insulated Dismantling Cable Knife, strip each core with the Wire Stripper, then trim the cores to equal length.
In electronics classes, students trim component leads close to the solder joint after a board is assembled. They cover the lead end with a finger or point the jaws down into a bin, so the cut pieces drop away instead of flying across the bench.
Frequently Asked Questions
How close to a surface does a side cutter cut?
The edges run along the side of the jaws, so a lead can be cut close to a board or a wire close to a terminal. For the closest cut, turn the plier so its flatter face lies against the surface.
Can it cut steel wire?
Keep it to copper, aluminium and soft binding wire. Hard steel such as spring or piano wire can chip the edges, so use a bolt cutter or a hardened wire cutter for that.
Do insulated handles mean I can cut a live cable?
No. Cutting a live cable can short the cores through the jaws. Isolate the supply, prove it dead with a tester, and only then cut.
How do I keep the cutting edges sharp?
Cut only what the edges are meant for, keep the joint oiled so the jaws close fully, and never twist the plier while cutting. Twisting loads one edge sideways and can chip it.
