4. 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.

5. Live-line working - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live-line_working

   Once on the line, the worker is safe from shock as both the lineworker and the wire are at the same electric potential, and hence no current passes through their body. This is the same principle as that which allows birds to safely sit on power lines. [3] When the work is completed, the process is reversed to remove the worker safely from the wire.
