Domestic wiring fittings, screw heads

Is there a reason why all conventional domestic electrical wiring fittings use exclusively slotted screw heads, rather than the much more practical Phillips or Pozidrive heads? Don't tell me that electricians can only carry one screwdriver?

  • This assumes you're spending half your life wiring domestic electrical installations. In the real world, part timers end up wiring these things (regardless of regulations) and making termination easier and safer can only help. Making screws demand specialist tools is like doing all your legal work in Latin, jobs for the boys.
