Which final output ratio will be used for stripping windup when calculating speed?

• A. Needle-nose pliers
• B. Electrical Wire Stripping Pliers
• C. Slip-joint pliers
• D. Electrical current tester

Answer: (B)

Using the right tool to strip insulation is essential whenever you prepare wires for electrical measurements like speed calculations. Electrical wire stripping pliers are designed to remove insulation cleanly from a range of wire sizes without nicking the copper, giving a consistent, safe stripped end. This precision matters because any damaged or uneven insulation can affect readings, connections, or sensor signals used in calculating speed. Other tools aren’t built for stripping insulation: needle-nose pliers grip or bend but don’t remove insulation properly, slipping-joint pliers are general-purpose and can crush or nick the insulation, and a current tester is for checking voltage, not preparing wires.
