Abstract: A method for the safe and easy installation of wall-mounted electrical switches utilizing a multi-functional tool. The tool is temporarily attached to a magnetically-attractive surface of a fixture using one or more magnets. The fixture may be safely held using the tool.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the safe and easy installation, inspection, and maintenance of wall-mounted electrical outlets and switches utilizing a multi-functional tool. Two different but similar tools are provided, each in the form of an insulated handle that may be detachably engaged with either a wall socket or a wall switch. The wall socket device includes one or more prongs for temporary engagement with slots in the socket fixture, and may include testing circuitry. The wall switch device is temporarily attached to a switch fixture using one or more magnets. Both tools may also include built-in electrical wire measuring, stripping and bending structures, as well as electrical power sensors and means for indicating the temperature of the outlet or switch.
