Learn the Thumb-Push Wire Stripping Technique

What happens here

The electrician demonstrates a personal technique for stripping insulation from electrical wire using wire strippers. Instead of pulling the wire stripper away, he holds the stripped wire with one hand and uses his dominant hand's thumb to push the wire stripper (e.g., Knipex Wire Strippers) away from the wire's end. This technique smoothly removes the insulation, aiming to prevent accidental nicks to the copper conductor and reduce strain on the wire.

Goal: Strip wire insulation cleanly without damaging the conductor.
