VDE tools are identified by the “Double triangle” logo and the 1000 V specification and the VDE logo. • All requirements stipulated in the DIN ISO for the torque, forces and hardness, for example, must be complied with. • HAZET VDE tools normally have a two- tone multilayer safety insulation, i.e. a red layer on the outside and a yellow layer on the inside. This design supports building regulation BGV A3 (VBG-4) • The insulation must not exhibit any visual damage. If the inner yellow insulation layer is visible anywhere, the tool must be disposed of immediately since there is a risk of electric shock. It is no longer possible and extremely dangerous to work with the power connected. • VDE tools with sprayed on insulation only have a single red layer. For safety reasons, the user should therefore check that the insulation is intact before starting work with the power connected to guarantee his safety.
