Product Number: 17696
Working on or near live cables and wires demands tools that offer certified, verifiable protection. The Draper Expert 17696 Fully Insulated Contractors Post Hole Digger is engineered specifically for these high-risk environments, delivering the safety assurance required by professional contractors and utility workers. The post hole digger is manufactured with an epoxy fibreglass core and attached to a fully enclosed insulated shaft with a reinforced collar, ensuring the insulation is not merely surface-level but integral to the tool's construction. It is individually tested to 10,000 volts, guaranteeing safe working on 1,000V systems and complying with BS 8020 standards. Every unit is individually certified to this standard, providing documented confidence in each specific tool rather than relying on batch-level testing. Traceable conformity is built into every unit: each post hole digger is supplied with a certificate of conformity that correlates with a unique traceability number embossed on the shaft. This allows the certification to be tied directly to the individual tool throughout its working life, supporting site audit requirements and safety management processes. The head measures 355 mm x 200 mm and the overall length is 1,730 mm. The tool is sold as a single unit, supplied loose.
Expert Quality, fully insulated post hole digger designed for working on or near live cable and wires.
