Starting College soon and need list basic tools :)

[George.]

Hey guys, i recently had my college interview for an Electrotechnical Installation course and thankfully got a place, my tutor did say that he would give me a list of the basic tools i needed but i have to wait just a few weeks before my course starts which does not give me enough time, could someone please type a list out for me?

Thanks much

George.

Well done on starting college buddy

Im just coming to the end of my C&G 2330 level 2 and in that i hhave used the following tools

Pozi drive medium screwdriver
Slotted medium Screw driver
Terminal Screwdriver
Side Cutters/snips (get good ones as it will save time and effort i recommend Knipex)
pliers
plumbers grips x2
electricians knife
hammer
junior hacksaw
hacksaw
spirit level
Set square
Tape Measure
Carpenters pencil

that should do you for basic kit

you may need specialist kit for MICC cable and steel conduit but i suspect your trainers would provide these

Hope this helps Buddy!
