Wera Kraftform Kompakt Turbo i 1 — insulated turbo handle and 14 VDE blades for work up to 1000 V
16 pieces1000 V, tested at 10,000 VIEC 60900Insulated turbo handle
The Wera Kraftform Kompakt Turbo i 1 Tool finder (part number 05006640001) is the insulated version of Wera’s turbo screwdriving system. It pairs the 827 T i Kraftform Turbo handle, whose switchable mechanical gear speeds up screwdriving without a battery, with an 817 VDE blade-holding handle and fourteen interchangeable VDE blades at 157 mm. Every piece is individually tested at 10,000 V in accordance with IEC 60900 for approved working at 1,000 V, so the speed advantage is available on live-adjacent electrical work rather than only in the workshop. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Compatibility — check before buying:
The whole set is insulated: both handles and all fourteen blades are individually tested at 10,000 V per IEC 60900 and approved for 1,000 V working, and Wera states the VDE version of the Turbo handle guarantees fast and safe working even in live environments. VDE blades keep their rating only in a VDE handle. The blade set is slotted 2.5, 3.5, 4 and 5.5 mm, PH 1 and PH 2, PZ 1 and PZ 2, square drive number 1 and number 2 and TORX TX 10, 15, 20 and 25, so there are no hexagon socket blades. The hook-and-loop strip is supplied but not counted in the 16. Inspect the insulation before every use as IEC 60900 practice requires.
Best For
✓ Electrical installation with long screw runs
✓ Control cabinets and panel building
✓ Terminal blocks and switchgear
✓ Electricians who want speed without a battery
✓ Sites where cordless drivers are impractical
✓ Work with square drive as well as PH, PZ and TORX
Key Features
Insulated turbo handle, tested at 10,000 V
The 827 T i is the VDE version of the Kraftform Turbo handle. Wera states it guarantees fast and safe working even in live environments up to 1,000 volts, so the mechanical speed gear is usable on the same job as the insulated blades rather than being a workshop-only tool.
Fourteen VDE blades including square drive
Slotted 0.4 x 2.5, 0.6 x 3.5, 0.8 x 4 and 1 x 5.5 mm, PH 1 and PH 2, PZ 1 and PZ 2, square drive number 1 and number 2 and TORX TX 10, 15, 20 and 25, all 157 mm with a twirling function for fast running.
Second handle for ordinary blade work
An 817 VDE blade-holding handle sits alongside the turbo handle, so a second profile stays loaded and the turbo tool is free for the long runs. Both are VDE, so neither is a weak point in the set.
Tool finder colour coding
Wera colour-codes the blades by profile with laser-engraved size indication for quick and easy identification, which matters when fourteen 157 mm blades look alike in a folding pouch on a dark panel job.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the i in Turbo i 1 mean insulated?
Yes. Both handles and all fourteen blades are individually tested at 10,000 V in accordance with IEC 60900 and approved for working at 1,000 V, and Wera describes the 827 T i as the VDE version of the Kraftform Turbo hand holder for fast and safe working in live environments.
Is the turbo handle itself VDE, or only the blades?
The handle itself. That is the point of this set: on the non-insulated Kraftform Kompakt Turbo 1 the speed gear is a workshop tool, while here the 827 T i carries the same IEC 60900 individual test as the blades, so it can be used on the same live-adjacent work.
Which profiles are included?
Fourteen blades: slotted 2.5, 3.5, 4 and 5.5 mm, PH 1 and PH 2, PZ 1 and PZ 2, square drive number 1 and number 2, and TORX TX 10, TX 15, TX 20 and TX 25. There are no hexagon socket blades in this set; the VDE Big Pack adds those.
What do I need to know before buying the Turbo i 1?
It is a screwdriving set only, with no pliers, no sockets and no torque control. VDE blades must stay in a VDE handle to keep their rating, and IEC 60900 practice is to inspect the insulation before every use and retire anything cut, cracked or scorched.
Singular Expert Insight
Most insulated sets ask you to accept that electrical work is slow work, because the insulated screwdriver is a plain blade in a plain handle and the fast tool in your bag is not rated. Wera’s answer here is to put the turbo gear inside a VDE handle, individually tested at 10,000 V like everything else in the pouch, which is a small idea with a real effect on a day of panel wiring. The second 817 VDE handle matters more than it looks, since keeping a slotted blade loaded while the turbo runs Pozidriv is what stops the swapping. Its limits are the usual ones for a blade set: no pliers, no sockets, no torque figure, and a profile list that leaves out hexagon socket blades. Browse our

Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You do electrical installation with long screw runs and want the speed of the turbo gear in a handle that is itself individually tested to IEC 60900 for 1,000 V working.
Skip it if
You need hexagon socket blades, pliers or torque control in the same pouch, or your work never goes near live equipment and the insulation is a cost you do not need.
Also consider
