MUST HAVES in all Industrial sparkys toolboxes?

[Deleted member 26818]

Basic tools required, are obviously screwdrivers both flat and cross head, pliers, cable crops, side cutters, channel lock pliers (5 holes), flat file, round file, hacksaw, junior hacksaw, torpedo level, set square, tape measure, voltage tester, a selection of drills SDS and hole saws (not that important, as you should be provided with them and a hammer.
You will after working on a few sites, obtain some stocks and dies, a bender stop, then all manner of keys (square, triangle etc.), more drill bits and hole saws than you will ever need, hacksaw blades (never junior though), earth sleeving, and phase sleeving and insulation tape. Perhaps even a kettle lead to charge scissor lifts etc.
