Thank you, for this new year my major focus will be on superlative finishing, I now have an above average construction team but the finish team needs a further injection of higher skilled workers. We need to be perfect this year.

^what is Electrical armored cable for ?

spyder880:

This is the main power supply cable to the house, I think I will better explain more with pictures, before the end of the week.

CityNG:

Very good.
This is one of my must haves when I discuss with my Architect. I do not want to see any exposed cable.
There are whole subdivisions here that all the cabling infrastructure is underground. You will not see any cable in sight.

Let's come back to this discourse. ...... we drop the power main inlet from the electric poles and feed it here.....

Re: How We Built The "Luxury Block Of Flats" In Enugu by spyder880(m): 5:56pm On Jan 10, 2015

Thank you Spyder.. You just answered my last forgotten question on the sizes of the tanks.
And also Thanks for the info on how to identify the fake tank by Geepee... Every occurrence is always a lesson with you.

BTW.. How much is each of the 500 Gallons?
