im no expert but all i can say is that the draper look-a-likes that wickes do are great mainly cos they seem to be hard wearing and the handles are great for grip and are comfortable etc. Another thing i can say is that Kew Technik are prob the worst because they are not hard wearing at all (guy i work with got a brand new set about 4 wks or so ago and half of the philips head completely snapped off when tightening an MCB terminal. One critism with the wickes ones is that they dont do a certain size flat head (might b 3/3.5) the one that is ideal for socket terminals and lid screws! they only do like an average size flat head of a couple of tiny ones which are also short in lengh. so yeah.. no prob with the wickes ones yet and kew technik's are rubbish.

my employer recently got a set of wera's from screwfix and he cant fault them, they've got added 'ridges' on the tips so they shouldn't slip at all.
surely though u should get the VDE screwdrivers rather than stainless steel because obviously being electricians its safer to have VDE 1000v tested screwdrivers than stainless steel ones!
