Similar to this but with heavy plastic in lieu of vinyl tool holders.

I don't keep my meter in my pouch, and I have a husky zipper bag full of wire nuts, wagos, screws, connectors and other random stuff.

I'm mostly troubleshooting at the moment.

Never found much use for the 1/2" nut driver, but the green end (11/32) is the one you need for the nuts that hold ballasts in and, occasionally, for a bastard batch of ground screws.

We have a fair amount of gear here with 1/2" cover hardware.

Also 6' plastic folding rule, DMM and Amp Clamp.

If I have to un-do more than a few cover screws, I ain't doing it with a nut driver by hand. I've killed my hands enough in my short lifetime so far. I use a little drill with a driver bit. Some might call it better ergonomics. I just call it selfishness- I don't want to hurt.

I'm doing electrical work in a food plant, where bags are verboten, so I have a plastic box. I pretty much copied the military GMTK kit, and substituted my preferred brands. Took out a few mechanics tools I don't need to make room for crimp tools and such, but it's pretty close.

I don't wear it anymore.

Just carry it about ...

and clip it to my ladder(s).

TP4 is a nice little pouch.

LOL... Left a few and found a few. Think in the end I may come out even.

Love those Veto pouches. I did the same, just carried it around. I was on a service truck so didn’t really need to wear it. Only time I wore a pouch was when running conduit off a ladder. Used similar to a nail bag, screws, anchors, straps.

Not on the tools anymore but still have that pouch in my trunk for service calls at friends and relatives houses

I got a lot of use out of my 1/2” nutdriver on larger strut straps. Thats pretty much it.

The acorns I usually use are 1/2”, as are the lugs in the Milbank meter pans we get. But I don’t use a nutdriver for those.
