Rubbiish:

Sir can these bamboos be use for beams, slabs & columns for bridges?

EgunMogaji:


What exactly have you pointed out? You are just posting nonsense all morning.

EgunMogaji:


Are we talking about building bridges on here? Use your brain, you dolt.

Expand your mind. You have a gademn smartphone in your hand or a desktop, hop on the web and try to educate your closed mind.

Question for astute electricians.

What is a "Diron" and "Wreckling"?

I "think" Diron is the electrical insulators on the poles and wreckling is the subsurface wire that takes wire from the pole outside to the house.

Thanks.

Cindino20:


1. How you plan to DIY plumbing and wiring for your project (assuming a 150m2 house) in Ibadan or wherever and at the same time how you plan to keep your Job/biz at you base?

2. Why didnt you use the DIY approach for your garage as Rubhiish ve pointed out.

3. Why are you pushing one narrative and doing something else.

I will appreciate it you can answer these qiestions without insults.

Thanks

C.

Rubbiish:

Stop flooding this thread with silly questions & go wire your house...Lets see if u won't die of electric shock...

Rubbiish:

Lol...Sick man...Keep on deceiving yourself...
We are talking about reinforcement...Everything that involves reinforcement will be discussed.
You make too much noise & always get vindictive when told the truth! Propagating what u don't practice...
How can u be in USA & your project in Ibadan, u keep screaming DIY? i don't get? For once i have never seen u on site lifting a pin...So how do u carry out your DIY?

Because u are too poor to hire a professional doesn't mean u should come here to deceive people...Always looking for cheapest means do things made u a DIY pastor...

You that have desktop & smartphone will still hire a local plumber to do your plumbing works while u send money from abroad...Why not come down to do it yourself since u are exposed??

Seems your DIY ends online...Everything about u is fake & unrealistic...

Poor old fool...

oyb:


What people call recline is actually bunched aluminium conductor. Your overhead cables wrapped in insulation. Typically for domestic 415 v distribution

I am unable to translate diron

EgunMogaji:


It's not my job to educate you.

You've forever lost any opportunity to ever have any meaningful discussion with me.

Foxtrot Oscar.

Cindino20:


lols...Educate fire... ...Oga chill make u drink beer...

you re not as clever as you make urself think sir....maybe by 0.5 yes..

Plato must ve had you in mind when he opined an "empty vessel makes the loudest sound".

All the best sir!

EgunMogaji:


I don't take instructions from inept droopy armed troglodytes like you.

I've been here before you and I will be here long after you've sulked off in frustration

Gbogbo awon ara ile e lo maku iku electrocution.

Rubbiish:

You don't have shame...I swear
U run here to ask silly questions & engage direct labour by giving them peanuts, because u don't want to hire proficient hands to handle your project( I blame poverty though).
As noisy & arrogant as u are not for once a professional visited your site all through the phase of your project. Even when your building was faced with critical issues that demanded physical attention u still couldn't hire a professional for a day...Now u wanna encourage people to skip professionals by hiring unqualified hands because u couldn't hire one??

We won't encourage that here...DIY doesn't stop one for engaging an engineer, well trained plumbers & electricians to carry out proper supervision...

Incase u don't know we started nairaland...Poor old fool...

Not at all, Tower has quality standards as respectable company they will never compromised on the standards set by SON and other international standards. Again that does not mean other can make better product, mind you Tower is an international Company with branching all over Africa and other part of the world. Many Chinese products are not as bad as people thought, it is our people that goes their to compromise the standards just to make huge profits. If you are ready to pay for genuine Chinese products is always there, it depends on your budget.

EgunMogaji:


Thank you, Sir.

So this recline is the black thick cable that I see that comes down the side of the power pole and goes into the site? Do you per chance have a pic?

I'm indebted to you. Again

PS: Is this also called Armored Cable?

I enjoy learning these things.

folmus:


He actually worked on my project. And I didn't doubt the integrity of the materials used. So I was wondering where the Chinese come in. @ the bold- if he truly didn't use the Tower, he must have used the bolded.

EgunMogaji:


Thank you, Sir.

I went and haunted one of Spyders thread and found this. I think recline is also known as armored cable?

EgunMogaji:

oyb:


No.armoured cable is copper.typically run underground.not really that necessary imho, if you you provide proper ducts for your cable.the purpose of the armour is to provide mechanical protection. Back in the day, cables would be buried directly in the ground, and would slowly fall apart.

Now just ensure your artisans run high pressure pipes as ducts, and you're good to go.

Also recline is overhead cable and typically aluminum, while armoured cable is typically copper.

EgunMogaji:

twinskenny:

Recline is different from armored...armored is the one in the picture

EgunMogaji:


Thanks Kenny, I see the picture of recline now.

He also wrote 70mm, that seems awfully big.

twinskenny:


thats big.. how many bedroom>??

the question is to get the real one. like the one oyb posted above.... there are so many fake out there 70mm sound too big for me. i think we use 50mm for a duplex with 2 3 bedroom flats.. cant remember now but not up to 70mm

EgunMogaji:


It will be serving the entire complex, so about 10 bedrooms.

For the electrical wires on the pole, how many mm are those?

I appreciate the education, Sir.

EgunMogaji:


I faintly remember us having a conversation about Tower and Chinese. What I usually ask artisans on my site is which product will they use in their own house. I am quite satisfied with his service and material.
