Pliers and nippers for electronics; nomenclature

This document establishes standardized terminology for electrical side cutters and shears, providing a unified lexicon across three languages to facilitate international trade and technical communication. The scope covers the nomenclature used in the design, manufacture, and operation of these hand tools specifically intended for cutting electrical wires and components. By defining consistent terms, the text aims to eliminate confusion arising from linguistic differences among various markets. It addresses specific parts, functions, and actions associated with these tools without extending to general mechanical specifications or performance criteria. The approach ensures that technical documentation, training materials, and catalogs can be developed with clarity and mutual understanding. This framework supports manufacturers, suppliers, and users in exchanging precise information regarding tool characteristics and usage. The content is structured to serve as a reference for vocabulary rather than a guide for safety procedures or testing methods.
