Tools & Materials

Success in the electrical trade starts with mastering your tools and materials. Contractors don’t want helpers who fumble around with pliers or waste time figuring out what Romex or EMT conduit is. They want electricians who know their hand tools, power tools, electrical wiring materials, receptacle boxes, switches, breakers, and lighting fixtures inside and out. This course is designed to give you the hands-on electrical training you need to show up prepared, confident, and ready to make money in the field.

Every electrical job, whether residential wiring or commercial wiring, depends on using the right tools and materials the right way. If you don’t know how to strip wire with lineman’s pliers, drill with an impact driver, or cut conduit with a sawzall, you’ll slow the crew down — and slow means no money. With Day 2 – Tools & Materials, you’ll get fast-track electrician training that puts the basics in your hands immediately. You’ll learn faster than you ever would in trade school, because we don’t waste time with lectures. We train you like the field demands — direct, repeatable, and effective.


This course is for anyone serious about building a career in electrical work. Helpers who are brand new, apprentices who need more confidence, and even trade school graduates who only learned theory will all benefit. You’ll practice using pliers, strippers, screwdrivers, drills, multitools, and sawzalls while working with real electrical materials like NM cable, MC cable, EMT, staples, nail-on boxes, and cut-in boxes. The combination of tools and materials is what makes you job-ready, and this course makes sure you’re prepared for both residential electrical jobs and commercial electrical jobs.


Learning your electrical tools and electrical materials quickly is also the key to picking up side work. Homeowners constantly need small jobs done — installing receptacles, wiring switches, hanging lights, or upgrading breakers — and you can’t do any of it if you don’t know the basics. This course shows you how to handle tools with speed and confidence so you can take on real projects safely and professionally. That means more money, more opportunities, and more trust from contractors and customers alike.


The Tools & Materials course is built for speed, energy, and repetition. In just four hours, you’ll go from guessing which tool to grab to confidently using the same equipment professional electricians rely on every day. By the time you finish, you’ll know how to handle the essentials, prepare your materials, and stay one step ahead of the journeyman. This is the training that puts you on the path to making money in electrical work, getting electrical jobs faster, and building the foundation for a six-figure career in the trade.

How This Course
Makes you Money

The fastest way to make money in electrical work is to show contractors that you can handle tools and materials without slowing anyone down. Every residential wiring job, every commercial wiring job, and every electrical side job starts with the same thing — knowing your electrician tools and electrical materials. When you can grab the right pliers, strip wire cleanly, cut EMT fast, or drill a hole for NM cable without being told twice, you instantly become more valuable. Contractors pay for speed, precision, and confidence, and this course gives you exactly that.


By learning your tools in a hands-on electrician training environment, you’ll skip the endless waiting that comes with trade school programs. Instead of months of books, you’ll spend hours actually using lineman’s pliers, wire strippers, drills, impacts, sawzalls, multitools, and cutters. You’ll also get hands-on with electrical materials like receptacle boxes, switches, breakers, conduit, MC cable, and Romex. This makes you contractor-ready in days, not years, and puts you on the path to electrical jobs that pay immediately.


Knowing your tools and materials also opens the door to side work. Installing a receptacle, wiring a switch, hanging a light, or upgrading a breaker panel all require the same tool confidence. With this training, you’ll not only look sharp on job sites, but you’ll also have the skills to safely complete electrical side jobs for homeowners who need quick, professional work. That means extra money in your pocket, faster than any classroom could ever deliver.


Contractors constantly look for helpers and apprentices who don’t need babysitting. If you show up ready with your electrical tools and know how to work with materials like EMT, MC cable, boxes, staples, and wire, you’ll prove you can save them time and labor costs. Saving time makes them money, and that means they’ll pay you better, give you more opportunities, and keep you on their crews. This is how you build trust, grow in the trade, and move toward a six-figure career.


Every successful electrician starts here — by mastering the tools and materials of the trade. This course doesn’t just teach you how to use tools; it teaches you how to use them to make money. By completing Day 2 – Tools & Materials, you’ll have the confidence to step into residential electrical jobs, commercial wiring projects, and side work opportunities knowing you belong. That confidence is what gets you hired, keeps you working, and sets you on the road to six figures in electrical work.

What You Will Learn

The Tools & Materials course is where you learn the foundation of being an electrician. You will get hands-on electrical training with the exact electrical tools and electrical materials used every single day in residential wiring jobs and commercial electrical work. From the moment you step into the training, you’ll be cutting, stripping, drilling, and preparing real materials so that you build confidence with every tool in your hand. Contractors hire helpers who know what they’re doing, and this course makes sure you’re one of them.


You’ll learn how to use the most important hand tools for electricians including lineman’s pliers, wire strippers, cutters, screwdrivers, hammers, and measuring tools. These are the tools you’ll be reaching for on every electrical job — wiring receptacles, installing switches, setting boxes, or landing wires on breakers. By practicing with them repeatedly, you’ll gain the speed and accuracy that makes contractors notice you and trust you on the job site.


You’ll also train with essential power tools for electrical work like drills, impact drivers, multitools, sawzalls, and hole saws. These tools are critical in both residential electrical wiring and commercial wiring projects. Knowing how to use them safely and efficiently is what separates rookies from professionals. In this course, you’ll not only learn how to use these tools but also how to set them up, maintain them, and apply them to real installs like conduit cutting, box mounting, and cable preparation.


Another key part of this course is learning how to identify and prepare electrical materials. You’ll work with Romex (NM cable), MC cable, EMT conduit, staples, receptacle boxes, cut-in boxes, switches, breakers, and lighting fixtures. Understanding materials is just as important as knowing the tools, because on real electrical jobs, you need to be able to grab the right cable, fit the right box, and prepare it properly. By learning these materials hands-on, you’ll be ready for real-world installs immediately.


By the end of this Tools & Materials electrician course, you’ll be confident working with every tool and material you need for receptacle wiring, switch installs, lighting circuits, breaker panels, residential electrical jobs, and commercial electrical jobs. You’ll know how to set up, prep, and organize everything so the job runs smoothly. These are the skills that make you faster, safer, and more valuable — the exact qualities contractors look for when they decide who to hire and who to pay more. This training sets you apart and gets you ready to make money in electrical work right away.
