2. Wire stripper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_stripper

   A laser wire stripper is a computer-controlled machine, much like a CNC router, which uses a laser to burn off the insulation of the wire. Laser wire stripping machines are used mostly for very fine gauge wires since they do not damage the conductor. A typical CO 2 laser wire stripping machine should be capable of stripping the insulation from ...

3. Lineman's pliers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineman's_pliers

   Lineman's pliers are used in the electrical trade to cut, straighten, and bend wire, and also to twist wires together when making splices. Lineman's can be used to strip wire and some types of cable, although wire strippers are more commonly used for this purpose as they can strip wire more quickly without damaging the conductors themselves.

4. Diagonal pliers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagonal_pliers

   Diagonal pliers (also known as wire cutters or diagonal cutting pliers, or under many regional names) are pliers intended for the cutting of wire or small stock, rather than grabbing or turning. The plane defined by the cutting edges of the jaws intersects the joint rivet at an angle or "on a diagonal", giving pliers their name.

5. Wire wrap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_wrap

   Manual wire wrapping/stripping tool. A correctly made wire-wrap connection for 30 or 28 AWG wire is seven turns (fewer for larger wire) of bare wire with half to one and a half turns of insulated wire at the bottom for strain relief. [3] [4] The square hard-gold-plated post thus forms 28 redundant contacts. The silver-plated wire coating cold ...

6. Western Union splice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_union_splice

   The 1915 textbook Practical Electric Wiring describes the construction of the Western Union splice; short tie and long tie. The short tie splice has it being formed after stripping the insulation from a pair of wires for several inches, each, crossing the wires left over right as shown in figure part A; then, a hooked cross (figure part B) is formed holding the crossing point of the two wires ...

7. Punch down tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch_down_tool

   A punch down tool, punchdown tool, IDC tool, or a Krone tool (named after the Krone LSA-PLUS connector), is a small hand tool used by telecommunication and network technicians. It is used for inserting wire into insulation-displacement connectors on punch down blocks , patch panels , keystone modules , and surface mount boxes (also known as ...
