So I’ve received the inverter and batteries to do a backup system for when power goes out (various reasons).
My complaint today is the exorbitant rates quoted by electricians for this job. They want to get R10 000 for ONE days work. Do I look hard up?
My next topic is the lack of information i.e. split distribution boards out there. Don’t even try to discuss this with people who call themselves solar electricians or the town electricians (two did not even bother to quote - maybe too close to their Dec holiday?) themselves. To get it done the way I see it pushed the total quote to R15k. Lol
And then try to get the missing parts for an installation or try to get everything done over a Dec break. Another lol.
What on earth happened to decent service delivery.
Gone the same way as the guvament.....
Anyway, the missing parts have been intercepted by SARS customs and incompetent importers. Now must WAIT, SARS as we know is desperate for any cent they can lay their claws on.
I have obtained the cooperation of competent retired electricians in my neighbour and now look to Feb to finish this job.
Holding thumbs.
