The OEL IT-11-715 is a 3/8 inch drive insulated hex bit socket designed for use with standard 3/8” drive tools in electrical and live-energetic environments. It is built to support tasks that require an insulated tool capability while maintaining compatibility with common 3/8” drive configurations, making it suitable for technicians working with energized circuits under controlled conditions. The tool’s insulation and construction are oriented toward voltage protection and mechanical reliability during torque application, with an emphasis on maintaining performance under electrical exposure scenarios.
Constructed and tested to meet established safety standards, this socket is described as double insulated and designed to withstand electrical stresses in accordance with recognized standards for insulated hand tools. It is claimed to be capable of withstanding tests up to 10,000 VAC and is rated for 1,000 VAC or 1,500 VDC maximum exposure, alongside being flame retardant and impact resistant. These attributes are relevant for workers who may encounter live systems and require reduced risk of electrical shock during maintenance tasks, though actual performance in specific applications should follow the manufacturer’s documented guidelines and safety procedures.
The product is intended for use where standard 3/8” drive sockets are appropriate and where insulated hand tools are recommended by safety programs. The described features position the socket for electrical maintenance, installation, and service tasks that involve electrical distribution equipment or other energized components, with attention to proper sizing and tool compatibility. The packaging notes a per-item quantity, indicating a single unit per package, and the overall utility aligns with professional PPE and MRO requirements in electrical and utility settings.
