Use these instructions that explain how to split your coins with electrum. The instructions were originally a contingency plan for a BU fork, but they are also applicable to any other fork.
Thanks a lot for linking me there dude,I couldn't find that link through manual searches.While splitting your coins you can manually change the electrum settings to connect to a node on a particular chain.
That's advanced!As of now (with the version I'm running) I don't see those options but since you have given the link,I'll refer to it.At the bitnodes website search through the IP addresses from the nodes electrum's settings lists until you find the user agent indicating which chain a particular node is on.
