What should I consider when using VDE insulated tools?

⚠️ Inspect VDE tools before every use! VDE insulated tools should always be checked for visible damage to the insulation before use. Cracks, cuts, excessive wear or a visible inner insulation layer indicate that the tool is no longer suitable for working on live electrical systems. If the insulation is damaged, the VDE tool must not be used for live working.

⚠️ VDE tools are no substitute for safe and professional working practices! Even high-quality insulated tools do not automatically make work on electrical installations safe. Appropriate technical qualifications, the correct working methods, suitable personal protective equipment (PPE) and compliance with all applicable safety regulations are equally important. Working on live electrical systems involves particular hazards and must only be carried out by appropriately qualified persons and under the prescribed conditions.
