beddhist Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Visited two electrical supply stores today, one a very big one in Suphanburi and asked for this tool. Mai mee. A quick search on Lazada turns up a bewildering array. I have never used one, apart from something similar to this: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/total-6-tht25616-wire-stripper-i111898955-s114505230.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.39.2e391167YjSGZt&search=1 Can the experts please help me identify a good one to buy? I will be wiring two houses shortly. I think my builder will be wiring up the big mains, so I will be dealing with all the lights, sockets, etc. I have done this before, in NZ, but had to use knife and side cutters back then. I don't mind spending a bit more to get something that works and lasts. Thanks in advance, Peter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
