So this is how hard it is getting water In this part of the country oga spyder880 una weldone oo

The water table in most of Enugu state is so low. You have to drill for hundreds of feet to get water, there are places you are almost sure you cannot get enough water for a submersible pump to draw. We use mainly well water in many compounds, and buy cleaner water from tanks to supplement. Towns like Ngwo, Nsude and Ajalli Owa has some of the best clean water and boreholes are many there.

Water is a problem in Enugu, but just like me, many people cannot live anywhere else, we have too many advantages here to make water problem a small one grin

Welcome to Enugu bro.

That's OK. Let me know if I can help in any way.

Just to be clear, I aim to be using professionals but I am looking for actual working professionals, not Salesman or Packager (nothing is wrong with that but not what I want).

I will be involved at each stage of the work.

There is no much advantage in terms of cost but some walls wont be chiselled.

The disadvantage is that it will not make the job neat. Some cables would be run surface and might look somehow.

Why can't you take pain and do a full conduit system of wiring. If the house has been plastered, cutting machine can be of help instead of chiseling the plastered walls to avoid crack.

My suggestions anyway....

I'm not sure but I think you got the question wrong. What (s)he meant I think is full pipping as against half in the ceiling area and not on the walls. Who combines full and half pipping on walls? It's either surface or conduit on walls and combined in the ceiling area. So what's the advantages or otherwise of combine in the ceiling area?

Dude, I miss your craziness. Now please update us on you projects; I will like to see how they look now. Those were lovely projects, especially the Beach House. I was hoping you will resurface. Love your ideas

There is no need of running a surface cable on the ceiling since you have all the conduit pipes recessed in the wall. The only advantage is the money aspect of it which is very minimal, there will be less money spent on conduit pipes.

Another disadvantage is that rat can damage the cables and bridging(contact between LIVE and NEUTRAL) can occur if you run single core cable on the ceiling.

The difference is cost which to me is not much.. I don't always advice half conduit... cause u have naked wire tuning in the ceiling and to think of it.. the cost is not that much better to go full conduit

We waste so much money on things during the build. We shouldn’t have to encase wires in plastic pipes.

You think so? You mean they should be unclad?
Even here they encase them in steel pipes.
I will not encourage unclad. The prices of those PVC pipes are nothing.

Note: Remember those okete on the roof o, not even ekute sef o.

i think the piping protects the cable from rodents in the roof, and inside the ground or walls, makes for retreieval and change of bad/faulty cables easier...it can simply be pulled out...imagine if no piping and the cable was encased by cement, any cable fault will entail chiselling the wall or floor
