Pro-Tip: Before every use, perform a quick visual inspection of the orange/gray handles. If you see the white underlayer peeking through any part of the grip, it’s a sign that the insulation has been nicked or worn down. To stay 1000V protected, replace the pliers immediately if the white safety layer is visible.
