i use this size and smaller when i recycle old computer television and electrical contact control parts,as well as the power panels from all our hosehold appliances we use in our home. most of the 1/4 inch and down are used for electrical stuff.

I have a quality set of miniature nut drivers. Probably for electronics, like meters, multimeters, instruments, maybe clocks. I think the largest size is 1/4".

It isn't that often, but I have seen the need for a 5/32 socket or wrench when working with electrical connections. The majority of the time they have been on aircraft or aircraft components, but have ran into them on other applications as well.

Maybe old ignition stuff?? I never use a 5/32 but I regularly use a 7/32, 13/64, and 15/64 on magnetos.
