Abstract: A hot stick installation accessory is provided. The accessory includes a main housing, a base, and a tool. The main housing has a holding region that holds an electrical component. The base can be removably secured to a body of the hot stick. The base is connected to the main housing for rotation about an axis parallel to the hot stick. The tool is secured to the base so that the tool moves along the axis and is operative alignment with a first area of the holding region. The tool is securable to a hook of the hot stick so that rotation of the hot stick, and thus of the hook, results in rotation of the tool with respect to the main housing.
