Which tool is used for stripping insulation on the wire?

• A. Conduit bender
• B. Wire strippers
• C. Fish tape
• D. Multimeters

Answer: (B)

Stripping insulation from conductors requires a tool that can cut through the insulation without nicking the copper, exposing the bare wire for termination. Wire strippers are designed for this exact task: they grip the insulation, cut it to the right depth, and peel it away cleanly, with options that fit different wire gauges. This makes the process quick, safe, and minimizes damage to the conductor. The other tools have different purposes: a conduit bender shapes conduit, fish tape helps pull wires through walls or conduit, and a multimeter checks voltage, resistance, or continuity rather than removing insulation.
