An electric work-in-circuit tool has a pair of fiber-reinforced plastic arms connected in tong fashion and limitedly opened by a spring. The free end of each arm has an integral flange apertured to receive bolts for assembling with, and attaching to the arm, a plurality of centrally apertured metal discs which are spaced by metal washers to form a heat-dissipating unit. The heat-dissipating unit spacedly surrounds the rear part of a metallic conductor body which has an axial bore to receive the bared end of an insulated power supply conductor passing axially through each tong arm. The conductor body also has a reduced-diameter front extension supportingly received in either a longitudinal or a transverse bore in the rear end of a metallic electrode holder whereby the electrode holder may be oriented either longitudinally or transversely of the conductor body. Each electrode holder has a longitudinally extending rabbited seat for dove-tailed slidable reception of a tapered carbon electrode-block. A handle-mounted micro-switch is positioned, as for thumb operation, to control the low-amperage high-voltage circuit to a step-down transformer for supplying a low-voltage high-amperage power to the pair of electrode blocks.
