FAQs

What are insulated shovels?

For operations near live wires and underground utilities, insulated shovels are specialised equipment with protective insulated handles and shafts, typically made using materials such as fibreglass or other non-conductive composites. They protect users against high-voltage environments and comply with a range of safety standards.

What’s the difference between a regular shovel and an insulated shovel?

Insulated shovels, in contrast to regular shovels, have a specialist layer of insulation on the handle and the shaft, providing extra protection when working around electrical components by not allowing electrical current to pass through to the user.
