Our roof space is passive ventilated, but we have gables with large vents (and creature screens). There's a significant flow through even on calm days. Anything with moving parts is going to need maintenance at some point and roof penetrations will leak at some point (just after you've been up there fixing the fan). In the absence of gables, soffit (air in) and ridge (hot air out) but these really need installing at construction.

Not strictly Motoring only, so let's pop this over to the Alternative Energy Forum. Yeah, there's no one-size-fits all energy solution. Hydrogen is great for applications that really need fast re-fuelling or weight saving (long haul trucking, aircraft), but as noted it's horribly energy inefficient.

She can use Google Translate as well as anyone ???? She would need to anyway, the menu is Thai only and no pictures.

On the subject of easements. Hopefully there is an access easement in place so you can use the road to get to the property. If there was any sense involved when it was created it would include utilities (power and water).

@NamRutai I've merged your two identical topics into this one. As noted, Bangkok is BIG. We know where you don't want to go, but we don't know where you are. Do you have transport? Help us to help you.

We were in here on Saturday, decent food, great river views, no tourists. https://goo.gl/maps/8V8FyNv35o8RpZWTA

If you have a hot-air gun you may be able to loosen things, but a hair-dryer won't be hot enough ????

It's right up there with the main reasons yes.

Many of these lights are sealed for life, when they fail it's time for the landfill ????

It all hinges on who owns the road. If it's actually a government road PEA should have an automatic easement to run power. If it's not government, then you will need to obtain an easement to run the poles. This would likely entail talking to every owner. Starting point should probably be your local land office (maybe kick off with a chat to your village puyai-baan), they may have a procedure in place to set up easements "easily". It's not like this is a unique situation. Or maybe PEA can help, aided by a little "lubrication" These problems are rarely insurmountable and those plots are likely to need power in future anyway.

If correctly installed and grounded there's no risk from an internal L-E short, the MCB will open. They are not portable so no trailing cable to cut. This assumes your system is wired to the required TNC-S with MEN earthing (a N-E link in the distribution box). If you are TT (no N-E link, just a rod) then everything needs earth leakage protection to be 100% safe.

The "up to 150kWh" (low usage) tariff which applies only to those with a 5/15 meter, it is of course perfectly possible to go over 150 kWh in a month without overloading that meter, hence the rates for higher usage. Those (most) of us on the "over 150kWh" tariff don't get the more graduated rates below 150kwh.

Your TOU when it comes will likely be an electronic meter, they are all 5/100 so no problem upping your incomer.

Consider which circuits really need an RCBO. Don't worry: - Inside lights Inside outlets that aren't likely to feed stuff used outside (bedrooms etc.) Aircons Do worry: - Outside lights Outside outlets and inside outlets that might get garden tools etc. plugged in Outlets in wet rooms and the kitchen (but consider having an "unprotected" circuit for the fridge / freezer) Water heaters The Shed Pool stuff
