This is the door i saw at my friends place and he said the wood used was Akoriko. Thats what the door manufacturer told him at the time of bargaining for the door making.

Please let's not encourage this.

There are other more sustainable sources of wood for doors that do not command such a huge price. Not just monetary price, but environmental legacy. We here are supposedly the 'educated' in society and we owe this to our children.

I drove through the Omo Forestry Reserve in Ondo sometime last year and you will weep at the rate at which these precious resources are being ravaged. There is no sustainability plan or recultivation. Just queues of 'Agbegi-lodos' as they're called, keen to espape (selfishly, IMO) with their precious cargo.

I don't encourage it, I only signify the location where the woods can be gotten, because there are situation whereby curious inventors can insist this what they want, and there nothing we can do about it, because they only seek quality, if you have access to the state goverment where the woods is located, you can write the state goverment to stop deforestation, in fact I went further to state that the woods.are very expensive, looking my statement carefully sir. You will know that i'm not bias in my contributions sir. I only contribute my own quota.

I just don't get it with you guys when trying to market stuffs online, don't you guys remember your advisement is worldwide. May be you guys expect someone form Abuja, Thailand, China, Singapore, Australia, Russia, Dubai, Malaysia, Ghana, Mozambique, Brazil, Mexico even Antarctica or Bayelsa to call you to make appointment to see the land abi. When you could post everything about the surroundings of the area clearly for any potential buyer to see what may be interesting to him or her before wasting there time. The question the brother ask may probably be most interesting buyers will continue to ask.

My Ogas,
Can a 63A changeover switch carry a 5 bedroom duplex.

Thanks

not advisable, though its load dependent, assuming 1 ac+1 hot water tank per room, thats about 20amps x 5, then sitting rms and all. i recommend 200amps or even higher, such items are not that expensive, its better you buy higher capacity that lower wch will overheat, burn when overloaded

200Amps is much and besides 20Amp is not really for AC. There is calculation that normally determine the total load of a particular building

a land that is already fence with gate, and documentation intact, how will they access the land, they will pull down the fence and remove the gate? That is what he said expect you don't read that part, there is gate and fence already on the land
Aluminum is better than Asbestos, aesthetically and health wise.

theoritically, a 2hp ac is abt 1600w / 240v = 7amps approx, yet 15amps fuse is specified for it, water heater, small ones is 1000w, big ones 1500w, 1000w/240v = 4amps approx, so 11amps total for 1 room, using a 20amps fuse/breaker ix an acceptable design philosophy.
again, the market is awash with fakes, a 25amp rated product might actualy be 10amps! in reality
the op is asking about changeover abi??...for nepa/generator??
