A controllable clamp for use by electrical workers, comprising:

• a clamping pin having
• two clamping jaws, each having a clamping arm and an actuating arm, the clamping jaws being connected pivotably to each other between the clamping and actuating arms and being pivotable between an opened condition, in which the clamping arms are drawn apart from each other and in which the actuating arms are drawn toward each other, and a closed condition, in which the clamping arms are drawn toward each other and in which the actuating arms are drawn apart each other, the clamping jaws being biased toward the closed position, and
• two actuating links, each actuating link having an upper end, which is connected pivotably to the actuating arm of a given one of the clamping jaws, each actuating link having a lower end, the actuating links being connected pivotably to each other at the lower ends by a grommet;
• and
• a clamping stick having
• a socket, and
• a hook removably receivable in said clamping pin grommet and movable into and out from the socket;
• wherein said pivotably connected lower ends of said actuating links are receivable in said socket;
• wherein said socket is defined by outer sides of said clamping stick;
• and
• said actuating links are movable into said socket by controlled movement of said hook into said socket wherein said clamping jaws are moved toward said open condition by said socket defining outer sides pivotably moving said actuating links together as said grommet moves into said socket.
