The handles of the tools like screwdriver and pliers used by electricians for repair work usually have plastic or rubber covers on them because such materials are insulators of electricity, thus protecting them from shocks.

Answer:
Plastic or rubber is an insulator which does not allow electric current to pass through it. The handles of the tools like screwdrivers and pliers used by electricians for repair have covering of plastic or rubber so that electric current may not pass through these tools to the body of the electrician to harm him/her.
