Many electrical components have a screw that takes a Phillips or Robertson.

For those who don't know: the head of the screw will literally accept a slotted, Phillips, or Robertson driver.
Milwaukee (popular among electricians) now makes a screwdriver that's the union of those shapes that they call an ECX screwdriver.

I bought a Klein version of that screwdriver and it’s a joy to use when wiring up receptacles.

I'm not sure if you mean the union or intersection?
I searched for ECX and it returns images of multi-bit kits. Could you link a photo of what you're referring to?

Several of the combo bit types are covered here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4WsTfJ-YwbM (start around 2m59s, but there’s a lot of good content there)

Search "ECX screw" on Google images, it has some pictures of the bits and the screws
