3strikes: Apology soundly accepted Sir but it was all in a joke anyways ![]() Listen, you and others on here motivated me and this is why I try to motivate others too. I thought I had to retire first and move to Nigeria before I can build (buying an already completed house is out of the equation for me due to my taste and needs). But seeing all you guys on here doing your builds gave me the confidence that I didn't have to wait for retirement before I build. In your defense though all you saw was my little chicken padlock that sits next to the main house ![]() 2 Likes

I do not think you will have any major challenge since you intend to generate your power locally and since you intend to source your electronics and appliances from the States. 110v power supply to 110v appliances. No wahala Combining 2 * 110v to make 220v is not that straightforward: 1. If you use two wires from the same pole you get zero volts differential, not 220 volts, since they are in phase 2. if you use two wires from different phases, you might end up with 208v (addition of vectors) if it's a 3-phase panel. 3. If you have a fault that trips one circuit breaker and you were to unplug the cord to troubleshoot, the male pins of that cord would be live with the other leg's 110 volts. That's a serious hazard to watch against. Again, you need to consider the impact of frequency. 110v usually operates at 60Hz. 220v operates at 50Hz. 220v at 60Hz may not be a good combination for the appliance My advice is for you to do an end to end 110v and just forgo the idea of combining two 110v to get 220v. Again, if not for the epileptic public main supply, the idea of a private 100% solar power isn't cheap at all. Good topic for discussion though. EgunMogaji: 1 Like 1 Share |

mufutau55:I simply smiled when i read your "threat" , wasn't perturbed in the least. I know you were just trying to startle the group to its senses. Too much of the drama was destroying the common interest. 1.5mm- 5000 2.5mm- 8200 4mm- 13200 6mm- 20000 10mm- 33,000 The above is Moses Adebayo's current. according to his sales rep.

My mother was a staff for over 20 years and they still owed her pension and retirement benefits. Imagine!
