Mr Raph01/Mr Olawale, you just lost potential customers because of unnecessary argument. You as a business man should know better. This is a public forum, you shouldn't have allowed personal grudges to affect your business marketing. Hope this serves as lesson for all other business marketers on Nairaland.

lolz... and who told U I lost potential clients?? Lolz, I'm sorry 4 U

DIY stands for Do It Yourself.

I guess I'm a bit more seasoned a DIYer because I do automobile, home woodworking, bricklaying, welding, building, roofing, plumbing.

I will share my future DIY plans and also hope to learn from other DIY as I'm especially interested to see how things are done in Nigeria.

Suppliers please come in and offer suggestions and sale item as appropriate.

Seriously man, you should not have done things this way. You are a business man. Even if you think someone is trying to damage your reputation either by stating facts, exaggerated facts or lies, this is not the way to handle it. It's better you present facts and evidences as much as you can and refrain from insults or attack of personality. I believe you are an adult, this is just an advice, you can take it or ignore it.

Lol. I have always known EgunMogaji is an intelligent individual and a good DIYer. Thumbs up to him. For his intended building wiring profile, though uncommon and potentially very expensive, it is good especially if he decides to consider home automation in future. He can have a very robust and dynamic load control system.

I understand where you are coming from, it's the Nigerian thing of not seeing the forest for the trees. I'll excuse you.

It is my private build and not a commercial one so please expect non-Nigerian ways of applying new ideas and technology. I was hoping to get a single board but it looks like multi-board is the only solution so far. My house is divided into four zones already, so each zone with it's own panel will work.

Thanks for the input and sharing the model of the panel board, I will look it up. http://www.powertec-electrical.com/products/distribution-systems.aspx

PS: Why use piping?

I can relate to that,good job!

Those of you firing Egunmogaji una no try at all. This gentleman is trying to step up the game and building standard by introducing some new ideas of what is obtainable abroad, rather than you guys give your opinions, you all went so hard on him that he is doing an overkill job.
Actually Nigerian standard in everything is fucking too low, I mean very very low. Why don't we just for once try to do the best without putting our greed first.
I grew up in one of the FHA houses built for festac 77 festival, we had a leaking roof because of some useless robbers that invaded and shot so much bullets on the roof, so I decided to climb into the roof and check from inside of the ceiling in the house since we lived on the last floor, guess what I saw?
The wooden structure for the entire roof of a block of 8 flats was as big as an anaconda, so strong and monster looking woods up there, and then I saw a thread by Aventure for a massive commercial building with tiny wooden carcass for the roof and I said to myself no wonder Nigerians are dying. We are only interested in building many floors and thereby we cut down the standard to meet our unrealistic budgets, instead of taking one floor off and use that money for standard roofing, standard lighting and switches etc. in the FHA house a man was going around asking young teenage boys to go remove the electrical switches in there houses and sell to him, because he knew how original they were, when people asked him what he needed them for, he said he wanted to set up a company and needed the switches for AC units.
In the FHA house we couldn't drill a nail in the wall to hang anything as the nails were all bending at every attempt.
Our artisans are not college educated and can only deliver base on local knowledge, but if people like Egunmogaji introduces new concepts and ideas to them, I don't see anything wrong in that, rather our argument should be in the line of suggesting better options with cost effectiveness.
I have a small mosque beside my house Arabs are building for themselves here in Europe, I really need to take some pictures of the roofing job done and this is just a bungalow mosque, although they have covered major part of the roof, but you can see a pix of one of the roofing parts.

This thread started with interesting ideas on how to solve the common problems of housing in Nigeria and Op was seeking inputs from those who may see things different but our people turned it into ego fiesta.

It's a good idea to ask questions when you are not sure of what will work if anyone has ideas share otherwise peace please.

I see roofing as one of the weakest part of current buildings, the wood is not pressure treated, held together by cheap nails.

Insulation is terrible and the AC runs continuously because it can never get the room to set point.

Why will people think you can run a shower using water pressure from raised tanks?

These showers are designed for water pressure higher than gravity provides why not an inline booster pump.

The problems with houses as mentioned above that needs smart solutions are;

Insulation, plumbing, electricity supply

Insulation involves the doors, window, roofing as major source energy drafts

Plumbing involves water and sewage( most houses have wells contaminated by neighbour's sewage)

Electricity could be from public, solar, or wind energy

Let start with Egunmogaji's plumbing system, what will be the PSI of the water mains and secondary lines.

what type of water heater will be used, bathroom supplies and sewage.

Please share your thoughts

We live in a time of unprecedented free flow of information, yet so many people ironically cling to outdated, Industrial Age methods. Those who refuse to adapt will be left behind, and not even the most altruistic building engineers of all humanity could save them from their own ignorance.

Very interesting thread. Take a look at the link below, I think it'll serve your purpose.

https://www.control4.com/solutions/products/centralized-lighting-panels

Thank you for the link.

I decided to use a Square D product and picked up the first of the 3 or 4 breaker box this weekend.

The particular box I got has 40 spaces but by using the breaker in pic 3 then I can double it into 80. So 1 panel 80 plugs, theoretically. Now you still can't overload the amperage but if I dedicated one panel to lights and other low amperage devices then it will work.

Pic 4 is a standard breaker.
