peaceland: Just to throw this out there too, the colors are imports and the wrong wire color will fail inspection.

Live Blue(phase)- live Black. - neautral We normall use green for earth cable |

topsy23: Oh, I don't care for Nigeria's coloring scheme, I just posted that pic to show the poster that color makes, or should make, a difference. But thanks for the write up though, others should save it. Correction Brown = Ground White = Neutral Black = Live |

EgunMogaji: Lol. On nairaland, you should care about Nigerian color scheme. Intl new code is brown(live), blue (neutral) green/yellow(earth) for single phase. What you specified is for US and definitely not obtainable in naij. Here we use the old Intl standard(red,black..) 5 Likes |

Thunder arrrestor I guess?, What you will need is 1 Cooper tape=1600 per meter (naira) 2 copper mat=5500 3 thunder arrrestor=7000 4 copper clips=100 5 copper nail=100 per pair 6 copper earthrod=5500 (sometimes it may not be necessary) This the major things that is necessary, other things are salt, manure etc. The height of the building will determine how many meters of copper tape he will need. LITTLE EXPO WILL THE DEALER. 2 Likes |

EgunMogaji: With all the time you used in replying him. You should at least have educated everyone on the mistake you noticed and correct it. The guy is not even arguing with you so why hoarding what you know At least give him a link if your fingers are too heavy to type. It will surely benefit everyone here. 6 Likes |

You see why it is better to clarify before starting an argument? Both sides were arguing on different points. One was arguing about lightning vs thunder, the other was arguing about bungalow needs arrestor versus does not. |

OP be wary of all these road side engineers. The Thunder protector I did over 3yrs ago didn't cost me up to 87k.One wonders what could have changed to make it close 380k by now. Get various quotations from different men,surely this will expose the man in question. |
