Study Notes

Electrical Measurement and Safety Tools

  • Multimeter: A versatile device measuring voltage, current, and resistance, essential for diagnosing electrical issues.
  • ESD Wrist Strap: Protects sensitive electronic components from static electricity build-up while working, ensuring safe handling of ESD-sensitive materials.

Insulation and Organization Tools

  • Electrical Tape: Insulates electrical wires and materials, providing protection against short circuits and making minor repairs to damaged wires.
  • Cable Tie: Organizes and binds electrical cables and wires together, promoting neatness and safety in wiring arrangements.

Cleaning and Cutting Tools

  • Non-Static Brush: Ideal for cleaning delicate electronic components, effectively removing dust or solder debris without generating static charge, preventing damage to sensitive parts.
  • Diagonal-Cutting Pliers: Specialized pliers designed specifically for cutting wire; do not grip or turn but focus solely on cutting tasks.

Wire Preparation Tools

  • Wire Stripper: A manual tool crafted to remove insulation, coating, or jackets from electrical wires, allowing for effective connections.
  • Utility Knife: Multi-purpose tool used not just for cutting cables and insulation but also for opening boxes and packages, proving its utility in various tasks.

Screwdriver Types

  • Flat-Head Screwdriver: Engineered for driving or fastening negative slotted screws, commonly found in various appliances and electronics.
  • Philips Screwdriver: Designed to drive or fasten positive slotted screws, capable of handling greater torque for tighter fastenings, making it indispensable for assembling or disassembling electronic devices.
