I recently saw an technical instrument that uses electromagnetic field to capture and move small objects. For example it can be used to capture and unscrew nut(female screw). How this instrument can be named right to find its description in the Internet?

A nut can be fastened or removed with a;
Spanner or wrench. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrench
Socket. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_wrench
Nut driver or nut spinner. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nut_driver
Nut runner. https://www.google.com.au/search?biw=1211&bih=751&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=nut+runner&oq=nut+runner

Where did you see the tool or instrument ?
Did the device have a socket to fit the nut being removed ?
 
I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
