FAQs
Is this screwdriver safe for 240V mains electricity?
Yes, it is VDE certified for use on live electrical components up to 1000V.
What does the PH2 designation mean?
PH2 refers to the size of the Phillips head tip, which is the standard size used for most household and industrial electrical screws.
Can I use this for non-electrical work?
While it can be used for general tasks, it is optimized for electrical safety and may be overkill for simple household assembly.
Is the tip magnetic?
This model is designed for standard electrical use; always verify if the specific batch has a magnetic tip as manufacturing may vary.
How often should I inspect the screwdriver?
You should perform a visual inspection of the shaft and handle insulation before every single use.
What is the standard of compliance?
This tool complies with the EN 60900:2018 safety standard.
Troubleshooting
Tip slipping out of the screw head
Ensure the screw is a standard PH2 size; if the screw head is stripped, use a screw extractor instead of applying extra force.
Handle feeling greasy or slippery
Wipe the handle down with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents that might degrade the grip material.
Signs of damage to the plastic insulation
Do not attempt to tape or repair the insulation. Retire the tool immediately to prevent risk of electric shock.
