Thank you, Niran Grand hotel website seems to be this one: http://www.nirangrandhotel.com

But what about Love friendly, where is it located ?

Thanks.

Any other information ?

Bangna Trat hotel ? What hotel near Central Bangna ? Any other choice better than old 13 coins on Bangna Trat ?

Hi,

Do you know any cheap but good hotel on BangNa Trat road near Central Bangna, but better than 13 coins (except if they have renovated it ?)

I am not looking for luxury but for a clean place, around 1000 thb.

Love hotels also accepted as soon as they are clean and not too old !

Thanks.

Hi,

I found this list, do you know any new places around airport or Bangna ?

Thanks.

Thanks. I was thinking that insurance companies are "easy" in Thailand, now I know that they also try everything they can to avoid paying for claims.

Any help ?

So, what is the best connection around Pattaya ?

Thanks.

Anybody can install RCBO in Bangkok ?

Thanks.

Will tell you soon if WR Vinyl is really worth your money.

No more information ?

Are there any available out there with a built in pump?

For better water pressure ?

Hi,

Do you know if any high speed provider proposes contract without minimum ?

If you need to sign for 1 year it's difficult to try them to find which one is the best.

True corp, TT&T, or CAT Telecom in Jomtien ?

Thanks.

How much cost CAT ADSL packages ?

Would you advice CAT more than TRUE or TT&T ? (I can't even imagine using TOT internet, but maybe i am wrong ?)

Thanks.

Hi,

Would you advice True corp more than Tot or Ttnt for high speed internet at Jomtien ?

I think that True internet is really reliable in Bangkok, what about Pattaya Jomtien ?

Thanks.

ps Triple B maxnet also proposes high speed internet by cable ? Somebody has tried it ?

He's in BKK ^^^

4500W is about the minimum I'd chose for a decent shower (bigger would be better if your power supply is up to it), go for one where you can dial the temperature of the water so you don't have to juggle the flow rate to get a comfortable shower.

Something like a Stiebel Eltron EL Series http://www.stiebeleltronasia.com/showprodu...ductseriesid=76 if you just want a shower unit.

Thanks.

Is this brand famous ? Never heard about it. Expensive ?

I guess it's safe as you are an electric system expert !

Good idea to select one on which i can choose the temperature, but what if I want to hide it in the ceiling, will i be able to use it if I cannot change the temperature when needed ? Using the faucet to mix hot and cool water should should be enough ?

Thank you, and I know that I will have to talk to a broker, but I want to know people experience also.

How much it would cost for a Bangkok condo worth less than 2 millions with furnitures and all security in condo.

For the bathtub, or just a shower? Which part of Thailand are you in?

Just shower.

How much for all risks insurance for 1 room condo ? What is the yearly price of a condo insurance ? How much do you pay ?

Hi,

Can I know what is your insurance company to insure your condo ?

Is it all risks (fire, water leakage, robbery ?)

How much does it cost for 1 room condo ?

Thanks.

How to choose a water heater for bathroom ? So many brands available at the same price, any famous brand ?

Hi,

Do you know how to choose a water heater for bathroom ?

I guess 4500 watts water heater is enough, but then ? Any water heater safer than others ?

Any brand with better guarantee ?

What else ?

Thanks.

Yes it's a lot more important than trying to protect people who die on the road because of stupid drunk drivers or other retarded.

The device you link to is an RCD, yes you will need one of these or a similar device with the same function.

Does your distribution board look like this:-

If so you probably don't need to replace it, but you may need to add an earth bar to which you connect the grounds from your outlet circuits and water heater. You could replace your main switch with an RCBO which is a combined RCD / MCB (in which case you won't need the Safe-T-Cut).

Have a look here http://www.crossy.co.uk/wiring/

How you add grounds to to your outlets depends upon what you have now, if your existing cable runs in conduit (pipe) you may be able to get the ground wire in alongside it.

Your biggest issue in an older condo will be how to provide an adequate ground, investigate your water pipe, is it metal? You may also be able to use the structural steel of the building.

I suggest your best bet, rather than trying to gleen information here, would be to locate a decent contractor (yes, I know), tell him what you want and see what he suggests. Once you have his suggestions you can post them here for us to take apart

Yes I have a box like this one, but smaller.

Hope Pro proposed me to replace the ON/OFF plug by what I guess is the RCBO about wich you are speaking about.

If I do that do I still need to also add the earth bar connected to the ground ?

But I don't need the safe-t-cut ?

I am sure that I will use a professional to do the job but I want to know first what should be done, so thank you so much for all your explanations.

Please can you also tell me where to buy an ELCB to add to water warmer as I couldn't find one at homepro ?

And last question, when you connect a washing machine and a water warmer to the gound, should you use 2 full cables coming from the main ground connected t othe condo or it is ok to connect the main ground to the water warmer then connect the washing machine grund to this water warmer ground. (1 cable from warmer gorund to the washing machine ground).

Hi,

There is just a general switch now (breaker), so it's like there is nothing and everything will be changed.

Yes there will be a water warmer and washing machine.

No ground/earth now but all plugs will be grounded after renovation.

I have seen SAFE T CUT boxes for around 5000 thb at homepro, is evertything that I need inside this box ?

Thanks again.

Electricity renovation in condo, what should be done ? Do i need Breaker box + Safe-T-cut + Earth leakage breaker for water warmer and washing machine ?

Hi,

Cam you tell what shou;d be done when you renovate a condo ?

I have read somewhere here about Breaker box, Safe-t-cut, and Earth leakage breaker (RDC?) for water warmer and washing machine, are they all really needed ?

Can I find a box with everything inside ?

Why a safety cut, isn't the breaker box enough ?

Thanks a lot !

Thanks for replies, but don't worry, I also don't linke and don't speak to French people !

In my opinion what is stupid is using gaz in Thailand, but you might know what you are speaking about :-)

So the definitive reply is: Buy 4 mm cable for ground + RDC/Eartch breaker

Then do you know anyone who can install this for me ?

Thanks again for all.

Hi,

Do you know someone who can install one or two ELCB (earth leakage breaker) in Bangkok, and do you have any idea about how much it will cost ?

Thanks.
