I watched a video the other day in which a guy assembled the most expensive computer in the world. The selection criteria was not the feasibility of each element in the assembly, but stupidly the price (to be more expensive). About 3 million turned out to be a computer.

I was interested in the idea to hold a similar action. But I will not assemble a computer (why repeat?), But an electrician.

Yes Yes! Electrician. But not hands, head, legs... We will collect a person for work. Yes, so that would not shame the honor of the company!

Unlike the programmer, who set as his goal to assemble the most expensive computer, we will still pursue the rational use of unlimited funds.

Everything that I collect, I do to my taste - from what I once held in my hands or heard the opinion of colleagues.

Of course, it will not be possible to cover everything in the volume of one article ... Therefore, I will focus on TEN main points.

I do not pursue the goal - to advertise specific manufacturers. They don’t pay me for this… But I can’t just write: “I take a puncher, a knife, a screwdriver, pliers… everything came out for so much money…”

If someone still thinks that the article is custom - just close it with a cross and do not read further 🙂

Due to the fact that I am not an employee of a construction supermarket and do not have the opportunity to take a unique photo of each tool, I had to take a photo from the Internet.

So… Let's go. Let me remind you: my budget is not limited by anything :)

1. Perforator.

Well, where is the electrician without a puncher? Moreover, since I have money “the chickens don’t peck”, I’ll take him two types of perforator.

The first is light, or as it is called “straight” in common people. Our electrician will always have it at hand: to drill millions of small holes in concrete for all sorts of fasteners. We need the person not to be very tired. Therefore, an easy perf, as they say ... Mast have.

And I'll take my beloved Makita. Only necessarily Japanese assembly. The Chinese also do it under license, but their quality is ... x ... .. so-so. For money: 8900re

The second perforator is heavy, or as it is also called “barrel”. Our electrician needs it for drilling deep holes and large diameter holes. And also, for drilling holes for installation and junction boxes with crowns.

My second favorite model is from Hilti. Price: 40000re.

You could also take a hefty perforator for SDS Max drills. But ... this is already too much. We are killing our worker :(

We will not bother with the equipment of perforators. In the case that comes with Hilti, there are drills from 6 to 22 mm. Plus a crown for 60 and 80mm. Well, if it breaks, let him call and buy more :)

2. Hand tool.

I decided to take a hand tool in a set.

There were sets with a tool belt, but I prefer using a bag. So I take a set with a bag (after all, I bank).

Although ... I did not ask the opinion of our electrician ... However, they don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. I think it will be satisfied.

Naborchik pulled 55,000 rubles. It is unlikely that I would allow myself this .... Damn, nine in good condition could be bought!

3. Multimeter

Well, what about an electrician without means of indication or diagnostics?

Firstly, I want to take a multimeter with clamps, for measuring high currents. Here you will have a constant / variable voltage and measure both the resistance of the circuit and the current. Even the diode can ring. Although ... so-so function for an electrician.

Price: khe.. khe.. 5500 r.

I also recommend this one. It shows the type of current, the magnitude of the voltage and can be used as a resistance continuity and a normal indicator. It is cheap (about 250 rubles.)

4. Screwdriver

I almost forgot about Shurik. My opinion - you need to take it with power from 18 volts.

Why?

The laws of electrical engineering are taken into account. With the same motor power, a motor with a higher voltage has less current. Losses are less. Equipment with lower operating currents lasts longer.

In this case, this applies to both batteries and the electric motor.

A noble stray. Had one. At work ... I would like to have ...

The price is impressive: 18 tons!!! But there is one superfluous function for us - it is shock. Although ... we will ask our master later. Will say thank you :)

5. Level.

Our master needs a level so that there is no such masturbation:

Moreover, I think you need to buy two types of levels for him: rack for installing equipment and laser for marking gates, holes ...

I prefer rack and pinion with an additional adjustable third scale. Suddenly you need to expose the cabinet with an angle of inclination of 5 degrees.

So let's take something like this:

He will show us up to a degree what kind of slope.

The truth is also not a little: 1800 rubles.

We will not save on laser. We will please our hard worker with good foreign equipment.

22000re (you can go nuts)

He probably won't use it very often. So, you can rent it to some subcontractors ... For a bottle of soda, for example. Well, or what kind of “currency” will be relevant at that time ...

6. Clothes.

Let's take care of the appearance of our specialist.

So that all the girls at the construction site only dream of him !!! So that they could not work directly in his presence.

Gucci with Versace for some reason do not sew overalls. But in vain! I would order!

But then I found such a fashionable set:

Cost - 5500 re (taking into account the fact that it is cold now and our electrician does not want to freeze the economy :)

7. Carrying

Of course, I understand that our electrician himself can bungle the carrier. But ... With such a tool, and in such overalls, which we took for him, to use home-made .... I will not let it!

30 meters is enough! I choose a cross section of 2x2.5. I don't think it's necessary to use a three-wire cable. Firstly, the mass of the coil increases (it will get tired faster, and he still gets to know the painters), and secondly, all of our power tools do not provide for grounding through a plug.

Price: 2900 rub.

8. Flashlight.

Until our master has finished his work, the object will be full of gloomy, unlit places.

Therefore, he needs to put a flashlight on his forehead. Preferably rechargeable, so that one charge is enough for at least 10 hours of work.

So ... we don’t take garbage (1100 rubles):

9. Staircase

If our specialist is not Carlson and he does not have a built-in propeller on his back, then in 90% of cases, he will need a ladder.

And if we don't buy it for him, he'll be telling jokes to the girls all day long. And who will work?

Let's take a stepladder reinforced transformer. He is a hard-working guy, and therefore not overweight. I don't think it will crush or break.

In any case, you will first need to pass it for testing.

Price: 18000r.

10. Set for couplings and tips

In order for everything to be according to Feng Shui and not be ashamed to look into the eyes of the customer, you need to pay special attention to connecting cables (if you suddenly have to put a coupling) and high-quality crimping of the lugs in the shield room.

And therefore, you need to purchase the appropriate tool: press pliers for crimping the cable and a building hair dryer for working with heat shrink tubing.

We take universal pliers from 10 to 300 mm2. Hydraulic. So that our employee does not get tired.

Price: 5800 re.

I would also take a press with a squib (works on construction cartridges). But…. Have not found. Has it been banned...

Now the hair dryer...

I like the hair dryer with smooth temperature control. Although, by and large, a hair dryer with two operating temperatures (350 and 550 degrees) is also quite enough.

In short ... Who likes what more. But I'm taking it a little further:

Price: 9000 re

In total, it came out about 193,500 rubles. A lot!!! And I did not take into account a lot of little things. Let's put on a paltosik without looking (colleagues will not mind).

It turns out ... 250,000 rubles

Here you have an electrician outfit with unlimited resources. However…. if a light head is included in the kit, all this will be beaten off from a month to 3.

On the other hand, as the popular saying goes: “There is a good tool - consider half the work done”
