WHAT IS IT
This lesson is composed of two sections which aims to equip you on identifying specific
tools according to function and task requirement.
It is easily generated by friction on carpets, tile flooring, clothing, hair, fabric, and etc.
The friction of moving air alone will charge suspended particles and cause the buildup of static
electrical charges on people and objects in the environment. To control the discharge of
electrostatic electricity, the tools below are needed.
2. HAND TOOLS
A hand tool is a device for performing work on a material or a physical system using
only hands. Hand tools can be used manually or electrically powered, using electrical current.

➢ sometimes called as a
“nut driver”
➢ used to tighten nuts in the
same way that a
Hex Driver
screwdriver tightens
screws.
Wire Cutter
➢ used to unsolder
unwanted parts or
Desoldering Iron component in the circuit
with the support of
soldering pencil.
➢ used to retrieve parts from
location that is too small
