The Irwin range of VDE equipment has been tested to bits! If you want to stay safe with any electrical work we cannot recommend this set highly enough. There are side cutters, cable cutters, long nosed pliers, combination pliers, bent nosed pliers, everything you need to carry out all home electrical work...Just remember to look on the DIY Doctor site to see what you are allowed to do if you are not a qualified electrician. If you are a qualified electrician, no doubt you will already have this set!
