The tools are insulated and tested according to DIN EN/IEC 60900, providing protection for live working up to 1000V.
While the tools are designed for professionals, non-professionals can use them. However, it's crucial to understand and adhere to all safety precautions, especially regarding live electrical work.
This specific set (Model: N787) includes the tools and a lanyard as part of the sales packaging. However, accessories like the SystemClip for fall protection are optional and sold separately.
