ABSTRACT:
A wire installing tool for inserting wire into a multifingered electrical connector comprising a handle containing a reversible elongated stem having recesses on both ends; the recesses being sized differently in depth to adapt to electrical connectors having various thicknesses, and a disposable blade releasably mounted on the stem and aligned with the recess to form a cavity which is bounded on three sides by the stem and on the fourth side by the blade, the depth of the cavity dependent upon which end of the stem is aligned with the blade. At least one end of the blade has a two-sided edge, the outer side shaped at an optimum shear angle for shearing wire to be inserted in the electrical connector, and the inner side of the edge being shaped to allow for a wire tail to protrude a predetermined distance from the electrical connector.
