Small Socket Set

[Amp David]

Looking at getting myself a socket set, but wondered which size most electricians use on a day to day basis, 1/4 or 3/8 inch.

Cheers

I dont tend to use one on a daily basis, but I do have a 1/4 set.

 

[PC Electrics]

A 1/4inch set is most likely to be more useful to you as it will contain more smaller sizes of socket than a 3/8.

I find a combination of an adjustable spanner and a universal socket like this:

cover most situations.

i have a draper, 3/8 and 1/4. it's a unique design , as it has a set of "through sockets". these allow to run a nut up say, a threaded rod without the end bottoming in the socket. was about £40
