Low Voltage Wire Stripper
What is the function of a low voltage wire stripper?
Just as low voltage wire differs from regular wire, a low voltage wire stripper features differences as well. Regular wire runs 120V or 240V of electricity. Low voltage wire runs 50V or less. Typical low voltages include 12V, 24V, and 48V. This means that low voltage wire gets damaged or breaks more easily than regular wire. A low voltage wire stripper ensures you can make a smooth easy rotation that won't strip the insulation while keeping the delicate wires intact.
Use a wire stripper when you need to replace or repair electrical wires. A wire stripper removes insulation from wires easily and won’t damage internal conductors such as copper wire. Wire strippers differ from cable cutters in that a wire stripper only cuts the insulation layer. The cable cutter cuts through the internal conductors.
