Why don't you use the correct driver - a slotted PH?

He sold them all

Aren't they slotted pz?

I think CU/MCB/RCD/RCBO terminals are +/- PZ

I still have boxes full of screwdrivers

My collection is massive, and I even have a couple slotted / philip ones in there, but I simply prefer a good old Flat head

These things...slotted cross heads. got a ck and wera one and never use them

The first time I used a +/- PZ I was surprised that I was able to put at least a quarter turn more on the terminal with the same effort, I was checking the tightness of them after installation with a standard PZ.

Same with a 5.5 slotted I reckon , you get sligthly more purchase on the terminal screw Vs a standard PZ or PH which can slip a bit when tightening down

I then bought a Armeg torque screwdriver and that was a revelation how tight manufacturers expect the terminals to be torqued, in fact I sent it back to be re-calibrated as I thought surely not that tight, the Din Rail was bending with the pressure I was putting on it.

I have a Wera and Draper Torque screwdriver and I swear they Torque differently even when set to the same NM

PZ slotted is a vast improvement on PZ, but I tend to use 6.5mm flat head on anything over 3NM

Agree, I have wrecked a couple PZ/S but never have snapped a 6.5 flat...Yet

Slotted screws can be a royal pain in the backside, but most problems result from using the wrong size of driver.

Formed from clippings of tin, I hope.

Was an old chisel ground down, I made it vde by using old pedal cycles handlebar grips

This one is more interesting than a lot I've seen recently. RCD doesn't work. Start whacking it, copying something he's seen on Instagram. (whacking it much too hard IMHO). It starts smoking.....!
I found the next bit hard to watch as I wanted to scream TURN IT OFF and LEAVE IT OFF!

(Obvious click-bait cover photo, it's nowhere near THAT interesting!)

Fair play to him, he did proceed to change the board at no cost.

Why would you trust anyone who wears a hat indoors that makes him look like a Duck.
