A cable handling device may include a clamp assembly having a first member having a jaw end and an arm end and a second member having a jaw end and an arm end. The first and second members of the clamp assembly are pivotally connected together so that when the arm ends are moved away from one another the jaw ends move away from one another and vice-versa. A proximal end of a first elongate electrically insulated handle is mounted to the arm end of the first member of the clamp assembly. A proximal end of a second elongate electrically insulated handle is mounted to the arm end of the second member of the clamp assembly.

A hand tool with insulation handle. The handle is made of an insulation material and is formed with a hollow portion (11) and an embedding groove (12). The embedding groove (12) is communicated with the hollow portion (11) and located on a front end (101) of the handle. The tool rod (20) includes a shaft (21) having a rear end (211) and a front end (212). The end plug (30) is made of the insulation material and includes a clamping section (31) and an abutting section (32). The rear end (211) of the shaft is positioned in the end plug through snapping the clamping section. The tool rod (20) is replaceablely inserted in the hollow portion (11) of the handle and protrudes from the handle.

A hot stick accessory with an attachment interface engageable with multiple types of attachment interfaces, including an shotgun-type attachment interface and a universal-type attachment interface. The accessory includes any of several operative components, such as a knife. The interface includes an attachment member with a first aperture and a plurality of second apertures arranged in an arc shape about the first aperture.
