PlugGrip Products has been in business since 1998. “Our goal continues to be making the task of working with outlets and switches safe and easy” said PlugGrip inventor, Bryan Cahill. “We have added to our line of tools, outlet and switch heat indicators. This addition gives the homeowner or professional electrician a faster and safer way to determine if there is an unsafe wiring condition by detecting the heat the wiring device gives off.”

The PlugGrip provides a quicker and safer way to wire and install outlets. Its’ handle keeps fingers out of the way, while controlling stiff wires and reducing wiring time. As an added safety feature, the PlugGrip has independent power warning lights. The SwitchGrip is used to install single pole and 3-way switches. It has a 12g-14g wire stripper and bender built into the handle along with an AC warning light and audible buzzer.

The PlugGrip has received two very coveted awards. It has been the recipient of the Handyman Club of America Member Tested Seal-of-Approval. The Seal-of-Approval is recognized by hundreds of thousands of Handyman Club members. PlugGrip has also received the coveted Retailer’s Choice Award from the Do-It-Yourself Retailing magazine. PlugGrip was chosen out of 150,000 products at the National Hardware Show.
