Abstract
A preform remover is more easily attachable to the conductor for removing a protective wire preform wrapped on an electrical conductor. The preform remover is also more easily operable by a single line worker, even in locations relatively inaccessible to the line crew. The preform remover eases the initial separation of the preform end from the conductor, and is also readily changeable to accommodate different wire sizes.
