Basic Electrical Tools

Wire Strippers: strippers are used to cut the insulation off of the wire. They are equipped with different sized teeth for various sized . They also have a cut-off portion in order to c ut the wire.

Side Cutter Diagonal : These cutting pliers sometimes called side , are used to cut wire. They are specially designed with a cutting edge that goes down to the tip of the pliers. The advantage being that you can get into tight areas to trim wires. There are some that are equipped with live wire detection capabilities Linesman Pliers: These pliers are the do-it-all pliers. They cut, twist wires together, and grip wires for pulling. They have a squared off end that is great for twisting wires together, a centre cutting for cutting wire, and a g rip area between the handles to pull wire

Screwdriver: A screwdriver is a tool, manual or powered, for turning (driving or removing) screws. A typical simple screwdriver has a handle and a shaft, and a tip that the user inserts into the screw head to turn it. The shaft is usually made of tough to resist bending or twisting.

Digital multimeters: Digital multimeters can solve most electrical problems - at the hands of a qualified electrical test profession. In fact, with a good wiring diagram and a good meter, a trained electrical professional can find the cause of almost any problem. There are two basic types of multimeters, digital and analogue. Analogue multimeters have a needle and DMs have an LCD or a LED display. With today's demand for accuracy in testing electrical systems, it makes more sense to have a digital multimeter but an analogue multimeter still has its uses

Safety in Electricity:

Basic Electrical Safety is important, but by no means the end of the road when it comes to adequate protection against electrical hazards. This article on basic electrical safety will by no means make you sufficiently prepared for tasks involving work with or around electricity. Rather, this basic electrical safety discussion will give you a foundation on which to build your knowledge to best protect against the dangers of electrical hazards.

Some safety requirements:

  Never use electrical tools on damp ground or around water    Keep a safe distance from pad mounted transformers   Do not overload electrical outlets with too many electrical plugs. Buy 

one surge protector with many outlets instead of ‗daisy- chaining‘ power splitters

 Wear rubber gloves and rubber boots when  working near electrical components.    Inspect tools and appliances for wear and damage prior to use   Use electrical tape for power cord management, do not use staples    Always use the correct size fuse, never use a fuse  with a larger amperage allowance than the original    When working near power lines, use ladders made of wood instead of metal    If you have a bad feeling about some work concerning electricity, stay away!    Know where breakers and electrical boxes are in case of an emergency    Label circuit breakers clearly   Do not use electrical outlets or cords with exposed wiring    Do not touch a person or electrical apparatus in the event of an electrical accident. Always disconnect  the current first.   Do not clean tools with flammable or toxic solvents.   

LESSON NOTES:

Tiling:

Tile is one of the most favourite design materials for both kitchen renovation and for bathroom renovation. It has been used since Roman times, and even though excellent manmade materials have become popular in recent years, tile is still valued for its beauty and cost-saving potential. All tiles can be classed into three different types: ceramic, quarry, and stone.

1. Ceramic Tiles:

When we talk about tile being cost effective, we are talking about ceramic tile. While not all ceramic tile is cheap, it is possible to find bargain ceramic tile which still can add to the beauty of your home.

Ceramic tile starts with clay—shale, gypsum, and sand—and is worked into a material called bisque. The bisque is shaped into tiles and is fired in a kiln up to 2500° F. The higher the temperature, the stronger the tile will be.

2. Quarry Tiles:

In the past, quarry tile came from quarries. Just like you see in old photographs of Vermont quarries, the tile was cut away, ground, and polished. But now manufactures use the extrusion method for making a vitreous clay tile that is almost as hard as natural stone.

Quarry tile has a rough surface, which means that it is perfect for flooring because it provides a good grip. But it also means that quarry tile is not good for kitchen countertops because it is very porous. However, even though quarry tile can be sealed to make it less porous, it is still not appropriate for food preparation surfaces.

3: Stone:

In recent years, granite has become the big winner in the kitchen design sweepstakes. It should be noted, though, that granite looks great but it does have its problems. Granite easily cracks , and like quarry tile it is porous, so it must be sealed and polished on a regular basis. Not only that, granite and marble are easily scratched and are not always resistant to high temperatures such as those from hot kitchen pots.

Still, the variegated colouring and texture of natural stone cannot be duplicated by ceramic tile. It is endlessly fascinating and provides unique design accents for out from a design perspective.

LESSON NOTES:

Processes in Floor Tiling: The following information is a brief description of the steps involved in using the thin set method to install tile. It is not meant to be an instruction manual; rather, it will familiarize you with the basic steps involved in installation. Subfloor preparation: This is the most important step in accomplishing a satisfactory installation. The subfloor must be structurally sound, rigid, smooth, flat, and free of curing compounds and waxy or oily films.

Floor Layout: In this step, the room is squared off and measured, and the chalk lines are snapped. Once the chalk lines are in place, the installer will verify the floor in both directions to balance the room.

Preparing the Tiles: Slight tone variations are to be expected from tile to tile. A good installer will prevent this from becoming a problem by mixing the tiles from several cartons before installation. This blends the tiles together, and any shade variations add to the character of the floor.

Spreading the Thin Set: Using the chalk lines as a guide, the installer will begin applying the thin set in one section at a time. He will spread one coat using the flat side of the trowel and then immediately come back with a second coat, using the notched side of the trowel.

Laying the Tiles: The tiles are then placed one at a time in the thin set by twisting and pressing while allowing appropriate spacing for the grout. A straight edge or spacers may be used to align the tile.

Grouting: The installer will generally begin grouting the following day. It is important to allow the thinnest enough time to set up before applying the grout. The grout is applied over one small section at a time and is spread by means of a rubber float or a squeegee. Pulling the grout firmly over the surface will both push the grout into the joints and clean off most of the excess grout. Then the tile is rinsed using a damp sponge. Very little water is applied. After approximately ten minutes the surface of the tile is cleaned again with a damp sponge (even drier this time), or on some shiny tiles, just buff with a dry towel

LESSON NOTES:

Tiling Materials:

1. Tiles 2. Thin-set mortar 3. Grout

Tiling Tools:

Notched Trowels A notched trowel is necessary when applying tile. They're used to make sure that you apply the proper depth of setting material to the surface. Notched trowels come in different sizes and depths as well as in rectangular or V-shaped notches.

Grout float A grouting float is a flat, rectangular piece of metal with a handle on the top that is used to apply grout to a tiled floor. The float is used during one of the final stages of the tiling process and is relatively simple to use.

Nippers: A Nipper is a tile tool that‘s primarily used to make circular cuts in ceramic tile that are difficult to accomplish.

Spacers: People use spacers to keep each tile an equal distance apart as they install it on your wall, floor or countertop. When you install tile yourself, spacers make it possible to keep straight grout lines and square tiles together as the adhesive dries.

Sponge: A sponge and water is to clean off the tile surface and should be kept clean Tile Cutter: The tile cutter is an excellent inexpensive tool use to make precise straight cuts in ceramic tile. The tile is placed into position in the cutter and is scored by firmly moving a tungsten carbide scoring wheel from bottom to top across the face of the tile surface. By then placing the pressure bar pad across the tile and applying firm and gently increasing pressure, the tile will snap across its score line.

Chalk Line: Need a straight line to hang wallpaper, lay wood floors or put in ceramic tiles? You'll need a chalk line - a small, eye-shaped case filled with blue or orange chalk and string. It has a metal tab on one end for pulling chalk-coated string out, and a reel on the side for winding the string back in

Tape Measure: A tape measure or measuring tape is a flexible ruler. It consists of a ribbon of cloth, plastic, fibre glass, or metal strip with linear-measurement markings. It is a common measuring tool. Its design allows for a measure of great length to be easily carried in pocket or toolkit and permits one to measure around curves or corners
