Thank you for mentioning this. Please ask @money121 if I send fund for the transport of His installer that came to site or not.

Where do you expect such fund to come out from? Let me stop here for now.

Am I supposed to say God will bless you?
I don't need your prayer.
Are you now insinuating what you left behind on that project in terms of materials, deposits for items and workmanships is worth the 2m naira?
Have you PAID money121 for the roofing? if no where did you keep the money meant for the roofing?

Smiles. Not praying for you either.

whatever is left on the project is not for you to worry about if I’m doing my job.

The termination came while we were working on the project and not in a state of abandon. The client acknowledged here at a point that his supervisor (who evidence show I’m paying) was the one working and I asked if he’s working with my clients fund or mine?
The termination met lots of materials on site that were newly purchased. I can provide receipt of purchase for you to verify dates.

Lastly do you think we didn’t do the roof because we don’t have the fund? I’m sure the client can’t say that because all evidence prove otherwise.

This fund in your procession is what we are asking you to refund mr bosun. It shouldn't be a difficult thing to do.
Maybe seun, mynd44 and other moderators will find time to attend to this. quite unfortunate.

Don't even waste your time on debating with this fool.
He wants to play in the mud like the pig he is .....arguing back and forth about every item even when there is proof and undeniable evidence.

He wants to bring you low to his level by engaging with him over and over again.

Soon he will start talking about how he paid for panadol and pure water for the bricklayer on your site...that is how low he will stoop down to .

You know what?
I take that back.

If you are willing to use your experience with our fraudster builder to educate this forum on his fraud, I salute you.

This is a painful experience that I know many people do not want to relieve and remember. So kudos to you.

It is infuriating to even see for casual observers.

Chief, what’s the difference between regular and registered survey? How can you be tell the difference? Thanks.
EgunMogaji2:


Chief, what’s the difference between regular and registered survey? How can you be tell the difference? Thanks.

When you want to perfect your land documents, a registered Survey plan will be required.
To tell the difference is a bit technical, but there are some elements you should look out for in a registered Survey plan. Like
1. The name, phone number, registration no., Seal, signature and office address of the surveyor MUST be clearly seen on the survey plan.
2. The Survey plan must have a unique plan number.
3. Each beacon (pillar) number must begin with SC/... except Survey done by govt Surveyors and some survey registered in the 90s.
E.g The beacon number should be SC/OY12...MZ. SC means Surveyors Council of Nigeria, While OY means Oyo state, because I know you based in Oyo state, for Lagos it is SC/LA12...MZ, for Ogun State SC/OG12...PZ etc.
4. In Lagos, it is mandatory for the surveyor to indicate the status of the land on the survey plan. To state wether the land is free from govt acquisition or not.
5. The date on the Survey plan must be realtime and not back dated.
You can take a copy of the survey plan to The office of state surveyor general to check if the Survey plan is registered or not.
Also let add this, the price of a registered Survey plan is regulated and is more expensive than ordinary survey. (Better soup na money kill am). There are other things look out for, but with these points highlighted above, you can tell the difference. Thank you for asking Elder Egun.
Edit:
A surveyor is expected to state also,on the survey plan if the survey plan is not registered, because some clients will request for unregistered Survey plan. If a Surveyors fails to do this, and it is reported,the surveyor can be punished by the ethics committee of the Surveyors Council of Nigeria.

I wasn’t ciear in my request. I don’t need to do all that.

I want to learn about cost effective products and where to get them from a Nigerian perspective.

I’ll be adding additional batteries and panels as my system ages so I need a hoof hybrid converter.

Hope my specific needs makes sense.

I stopped using inverters because I got tired of battery whackamole.

Too much quality variance.

I get the feeling everyone is just shaving the quality off batteries they sell.

And now we are moving to lithium where quality cutting is far more dangerous.

Off the cuff, You may get lucky if you get a schneider electric partner.

A socket outlet is supposed to be rated for 13amps. 13 amps means you can connect 3 kettles to the socket with no issue.

Unfortunately the socket outlets being sold almost everywhere are low quality and will only work fine with household electronics

You need to find someone selling GENUINE MK or schneider electric or legrand outlets. I would say ABB or MEM but their fake full market.

Where do you live?

Thank you for the detailed answer.

I just bought a property that has beacon YAEC. My surveyor immediately identified it as non registered. I didn’t want to question an older gentleman. The one he’s redoing it, as is all my other surveys are registered. They typically have SC/OY.

Thanks once again.

I am sure you can. The question is can you get the original?

One option that may work is JMG or mikano Abuja. They are originally generator sellers but have now become sales partners for legrand and Co. If you can find their Abuja numbers you can contact and make purchases from their warehouses.

You also need structural drawings and MEP drawings.
