Method and apparatus for servicing telecommunication box

A method of servicing a telecommunication box including

• at least one door,
• a nut with an external hex surface,
• a bolt with an internal hex surface and a dimple and mounted in the door to open and close the door,
• a plurality of electrical connectors, and
• a plurality of wires each connected to at least one electrical connector,
• said method comprising the steps of
• (a) providing a crimping button including
• (i) a housing,
• (ii) an opening formed in the housing,
• (iii) a member mounted in said housing in a first operative position and displaceable to a second operative position,
• (ii) an electrically conductive strip attached to said member to contact at least one wire in said housing when said member is displaced to said second operative position;
• (b) providing a first manually operated tool including a pair of components pivotally connected and each including
• (i) a distal end and a proximate end,
• (ii) a handle at the distal end operatively opposed to the handle at the distal end of the other one of said pair of components,
• (iii) a needle nose gripping member at the proximate end operatively opposed to the needle nose gripping member at the proximate end of the other one of said pair of components,
• the tool also including at least one crimp space formed therein;
• (c) providing a second manually operated tool including
• (i) a handle including a first end and a second end,
• (ii) an opening formed in said first end and including an internal hex surface shaped to slide over and engage said nut,
• (iii) a sleeve including a first end and a second end each shaped and dimension to slide into said opening, said second end extending into said opening
• (iv) an aperture formed in said first end of said sleeve,
• (v) a bit including
• a collar shaped and dimensioned to be slidably inserted in said aperture in said first end of said sleeve and including a first side and a second side,
• a first sni tool end connected to and outwardly extending from said first side of said collar and shaped and dimensioned to extend into said aperture, said sni tool end extending into said aperture, and
• a second tool end connected to and outwardly extending from said second side of said collar and shaped and dimensioned to extend into said aperture;
• (d) removing said sleeve from said opening;
• (e) removing said bit from said aperture in said first end of said sleeve;
• (f) utilizing said sni tool to open said the door to the telecommunication box;
• (g) manually manipulating said tool to reach into the telecommunication box and grasp a portion of at least one of said wires with said needle nose gripping members and displace said portion to a desired location;
• (h) placing a crimping button on said portion of said wire;
• and
• (i) manually manipulating said tool to grasp said crimping button in said crimp space of said tool and to compress said crimping button in said crimp space to move said member from said first to said second operative position.
