Confuscious Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 A few days ago, the authorities wanted to make a compulsory course for the electricians. And now they show that ALL electric material in Thailand is cheap Chinese crap. "Normal" electric material is self-extinguishing.Use that material and not the cheap crap.

snowgard Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I didn't know they made "aluminum" comms cables. The most overland cables here are from aluminium. Copper they use at most only for underground. Copper cables to expensive and maybe gone missing to fast!!! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I drove past this a few hours after it happened. Representatives of every company with cables were there: TV, phone, electricity, all with huge reels of new cable. Ladders everywhere. Hell of a mess.
