## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will these cutters work on 10AWG hear copper wire?**
A: They have been working great for me. I usually work with 12AWG, but there is some 10AWG here and there no problem.

**Q: Personal preference question - Do you prefer this 5.5 inch version or the 6.25 inch version?**
A: really a matter of hand size and what it is used for. By far the most common is the high leverage version, 74 08or 06 200

**Q: Are these cutters used solely for electrical work? Can they be used the same way as the equivalent uninsulated cutters? Thank You!**
A: sure, but if you do not need insulated there are cheaper options for this same tool, 70 01 160, 70 02 160 or 70 05 160
