@allcopacetic:- I will be last person to take water and electricity as nothing the House u are seeing out there is till the top filled with concrete to the brim, secondly the all float switch is not only the safety measure provided, their other measure taken that will be showcased and all cables and equipment are saveguarded with the highest safety measure you can think of. it will be showcased when the time comes for all to learn

I saw your setup and thought it right to point out a safety concern. It'll help to have that in mind

mank1234:
To avoid, insulation leakage you can use a suitable armoured cable. Cable are layed underground and inside water

When there is current leakage, contact with cables are the least of your problems, nobody goes to touch cables carelessly in the first place,
There are plenty of metal parts that conduct and can transfer current to the walls, or upon direct contact

Again, the point of my comment was to point out that close proximity of water to electricity is not safe, and as such "careful consideration" should be done before implementing any such setup.

mank1234:
No matter the the risk you anticipate, there will always be solutions.

Houses are built under water, and on water. That doesn't mean you can take your regular building submerge it in water, I don't recall saying any design or setup is physically impossible,

My point and literal statement was.."careful consideration" ... If you want to drive a car under water design it to be amphibious.

mank1234:
Inverter/charger,

So your inverter and charge controller are exposed to rain, interesting.

mank1234:
There are many solar projects around totally expose to element!

1)
There are many solar projects around totally expose to element!

What parts of the solar Project exactly ?

mank1234:
1) use automatic water level controller to cut off the power supply to the pump before it's full. With that you won't have to worry much about electricity and water.
2) use appropriate IP rated appliances. After all transformer is always exposed to the element with no effects.

There are many solar projects around totally expose to element!

(1) do you seriously want to rely on the 100% infallibility of a float switch ?
(2) ingress protection designs serve to protect water ingress into the the device or equipment, not insulation of current out of it
If you have a damp wall and there is a current leak, an ingress protection rating of 1000 will not prevent current from flowing

Transformers are open air, outdoor equipments and are designed as such, are your equipments designed for such applications ?
those who go in to do any kind of job on the transformer would wear adequate protection and supply to the transformer would be cut off

Water and electricity don't mix well.

There are strict regulations for safely locating mere wall sockets in bathrooms. let alone having all that water directly above all that power. you should give it careful consideration

Can I have your contact details to call you or email? I need cables for my project and wanted to find out prices for Coleman. This is a 4 bedroom duplex in Lekki. Do you have a rough estimate how much this will cost for a 4 bedroom duplex currently?

Thanks,

Good evening

Thanks for the kind compliments

No please, dont quit!
Just remember, when Cement was being sold for #2 a Bag, some did not build a house but others built when it was sold at #50 per bag.
Remember that when the Banker earning close to 500K monthly could not build a house, a lowly paid teacher built a Bungalow!
It all boils down to planning, foresight and determination.

YOU will finish this one you have started, in God's name.... by fire, by force. as we say!

Now, how far have you gone?
*How much do you have left (cash)?
*Whatever your projected income stream is, all you need to do is just to "change tactics".

1.) Is your building a "mansion"? (most first builds are) - You can scale it down a bit, for now........... and still build your Mansion later!

2.) Is it possible that you continue with a certain part that you can finish with what money you have (like ground floor), move into it and finish the rest in bits, as money comes in?
Money will come, no bad situation last forever but only those who dont give-up midway, can take advantage of the "change", when it comes! be ready to do so.
3.) Some materials get more expensive quickly than others (Like Cables (prone to high inflation...compared to WC! ). Some Material move a build much further than others (Blocks give the impression you are almost done while Plastering just sucks your money).
Plumbing is the cheapest in finishing while Tiling and Wiring consumes most money!

It is okay to take a break but please, whatever Money you have on you now, dont divert it to other things (like second wife! ), just use it to buy Original Cables or Aluminium Roofing Sheets (they dont expire unlike Cement, they are never out of fashion unlike Accessories).
That Man called AllCopacetic can be very helpful in this regard!) and Keep them safely where you live now (Dont let your Landlord see them o, otherwise you are due for a rent increase! ) You can buy smaller Accessories like Taps, Sinks too, if you have good storage space.
The idea is just to keep your money busy and productive towards your house.

4.) Mould Blocks yourself instead of buying.
Why do you need "Stone Dust" Blocks, when you are not building a mini-vault? Okay, what about buying 15Tons of Stone Dust and some Cement... then get a Moulder to mould it at your site? it will definitely be cheaper than buying ready-made ones!

5.) Sacrifice time to go to the market and buy what yo need for building! There is a very high "extra price" to pay, in you leave every buying decision to your contractor! Ofc, it can save you as much as 35% overall cost but it is a lot of "effort" though like Egun, you can also have fun while doing so.

6.) Develop strong negotiation skills when dealing with Artisans! Remember, they have heard ..and do use the "na Dollar cause am" story as well!
7.) Create time to supervise your build, Lend a hand if need be and you are capable DIY man. (Buy the Tools, they make the work very easy!
When a Carpenter charges you an exorbitant amount just to nail two woods together, ask him to 'break it down' into stages (you are learning! ) and if his price would not come down, DO IT YOURSELF and save the money or just hire a "Labourer" to do the heavy lifting (and pay him a daily rate) while you be the "Oga" and supply the know-how! At the end of the day, you will save about 70% on such not too demanding job.

I know how frustrating it is to be saving to build and prices are skyrocketing daily, especially if you are already at your wits end but what YOU MUST NEVER ENTERTAIN is the thought of abandoning your project!

Keep reminding yourself (infact, write and print it on a Big A4 paper and paste it across your bed so that iy is the first thing you will see each day you wake Up: When the going gets tough, it is the time that ONLY the Tough, get going.... I AM TOUGHER THAN ANYONE THINKS!
Every minute of your spare time, just imagine yourself in your own house, calling the shots and your wife doing Mummy Landlady!

I just hope your Landlord makes life more difficult for you so that when you are not too comfortable where you are now, it will be a tonic/incentive for you to be steadfast and finish your own house!

Look, one Musician called Ebenezer Obey once sang: The Fulfilment in Life starts when you build your own house, may God build mine for me (literally). Its like buying your first 'real' car!

So Bro, we are all supporting you with prayers (Emm...., money would have been better sha but Kontiri is not smiling anywhere! ) and l am betting on you right now, tha you will finish this house of yours!

Now, just dont set a too-tight, completion date for yourself (that can be hard on your health because of stress) but just smile and tell yourself "This House will finish when God says it will finish but finish it will!
Complete "some small chunks/part of it", every three Months and keep at it.

One day IN FUTURE, you will read the post you made today AND SMILE........ so that is how easy it is, to give up on one's dreams?
WINNERS DONT QUIT ..... and l dont see you as a loser because you have already started something!
Just finish up.
