Greenlee 727 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Greenlee 727 cable cutter handle 2/0 AWG copper service conductors?
Yes. The Greenlee 727 is rated to cut copper and aluminum cable up to 2/0 AWG (70 mm2). That is its ceiling, so anything larger, such as 4/0 feeders, needs a bigger ratchet or hydraulic cutter rather than this hand tool.
2) Do the handles on the Greenlee 727 provide electrical insulation?
No. The handles are steel with PVC-covered rubber grips for comfort and grip only, not rated insulation. Treat conductors as de-energized before cutting, or use a tool specifically rated for live work.
3) Can the Greenlee 727 cut communication cable as well as power conductors?
It is rated for communication cable up to 100 pair, alongside 2/0 AWG copper and aluminum. That covers telecom bundle work and power conductors with the same tool.
4) Is this Greenlee cutter small enough to use one-handed in a panel or junction box?
The 727 is 9-3/4 inches overall, so it works inside a panel or box where a long-handled cutter will not fit. The high-leverage handle geometry is what makes up for the short length on 2/0 cable.
5) Will the Greenlee 727 crush or deform the conductor when cutting stranded cable?
No. The blades are precision-ground curved shear-action blades, so the cable is sheared rather than pinched. That keeps the strand bundle round for terminating into a lug or compression connector.
6) Should I use the Greenlee 727 on ACSR, steel wire, or screws?
No. The 727 is built for copper and aluminum conductors and communication cable only. Steel-cored or hardened wire will chip the heat-treated shear blades; use a cutter rated for steel instead.
7) How does the Greenlee 727 hold up in damp or outdoor utility work?
The tool is forged steel with a rust-resistant black oxide finish, which is what keeps it serviceable on outdoor utility and underground work. Black oxide is a thin conversion coating, so wipe and oil it after wet use.
8) What part number do I order for the Greenlee hand-held 2/0 cable cutter?
Order Greenlee model 727. It ships as a single tool with no size or finish options to specify.
