How to cut drywall holes for electrical stuff

I just got new drywall and plaster installed for my ceilings and walls.

My electrician is going to be coming to install ceiling fans, outlets, switches and light fixtures.

Most of the existing holes in the drywall are going to be enlarged a bit to get the electrical stuff to fit.

I may want to do this cutting myself because no one will be as patient and careful as the homeowner.

Here's the dumb question: What's the right tool to cut through drywall/sheetrock/plaster?
