This Issue's Question: Who makes the Vol-Con Elite Voltage/Continuity Tester which Combines Accuracy of Digital Circuitry with Solenoid Vibration Mode? Careful Tool Selection Can Help Prevent Repetitive Stress Injuries Chuck Ross If you’ve ever felt the need to stretch and massage your wrist and palm after repeatedly performing the same squeezing or pressing task by hand, then you probably can understand what the symptoms of repetitive stress injury can feel like. Electrical contractors can be especially susceptible to this condition, thanks to the amount of time they spend in close quarters doing any number of repetitive tasks at odd angles, which can strain related muscles and nerves in the process. Material Decisions: Choosing the Right Fastener for Hazardous Locations Chuck Ross Contractors often are required to select electrical equipment, such as enclosures, based on the environmental hazards any particular application might pose. The labeling system established by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) offers assurance that a NEMA 4 enclosure, for example, has been tested and proven to be watertight. Selecting the right cable fasteners for such hazardous installations, however, can be a less-clear process. Klein Tools, Inc.
