In the context of electrical installations governed by BS 7671 (the 18th Edition of the Wiring Regulations) in the UK, hammers and chisels may find limited use for certain tasks related to the installation, maintenance, and modification of electrical wiring, conduits, enclosures, and related components. While these tools are not as commonly associated with electrical work as other hand tools, they can still be valuable for specific applications. Here are some common hammers and chisels used in electrical work, along with relevant safety considerations:

Hammers:

Claw Hammer: A claw hammer with a flat face and a curved claw on the opposite side is occasionally used in electrical work for tasks such as securing electrical boxes, fastening cable supports, or driving anchors. Safety considerations include:
- Ensure that the hammer is in good condition, with a securely attached head.
- Use the appropriate size and type of hammer for the task.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses.
Rubber Mallet: Rubber mallets with non-marring, soft rubber heads are used for gently tapping and positioning electrical components without causing damage. Safety considerations include:
- Choose a rubber mallet with an appropriate hardness for the task.
- Be mindful of the material you are striking to avoid damage.

Chisels:

Cold Chisels: Cold chisels with a sharp cutting edge are used for cutting and shaping metal conduit or boxes and for creating openings in electrical enclosures. Safety considerations include:
- Ensure the chisel is sharp and properly maintained.
- Secure the workpiece and maintain control during chiseling.
- Wear appropriate PPE, including safety glasses and gloves.
Wood Chisels: Wood chisels may be used for tasks such as recessing electrical boxes into walls or cutting channels for conduit in wood surfaces. Safety considerations include:
- Use the appropriate type and size of chisel for the material and task.
- Maintain the chisel’s sharpness and handle it with care to avoid accidents.
Chisel Guards: Chisel guards or safety shields can be used to protect hands and fingers when using chisels. They can help prevent accidental injuries while chiseling.

When using hammers and chisels in electrical work, it’s crucial to prioritize safety and follow best practices. While these tools are less common in electrical installations, they may still be necessary for specific applications where precise cutting, shaping, or positioning is required. Always adhere to safety guidelines, wear appropriate PPE, and take precautions to prevent accidents or injuries.

Additionally, be aware of specific electrical safety measures and guidelines outlined in BS 7671 and other relevant electrical regulations when using hand tools in electrical installations.
