wall_socket__with__co-ax.JPG
220 V and co-ax TV sockets.Most TVs and audio surround systems have 2-pin plugs,so these sockets a re ok for equipment that does not need earthing.jazzmanMar 20, 2009

Used in the motel.Light switch and fan controller.
Fan controllers are supplied with the fans.
The trick here is to use one conduit under the rendering for both the light switch and the control box.

gladwrap.JPG
Socket used in the motel.This brand is cheaper than the bTicino?® I used in the house. But it is still not the cheapest.
Not the cling film to protect them from scratches and paint.
The escutcheons will be removed for painting the walls. Most workers don't think to do this and get paint everywhere.d.

dichrotic.jpg
Small 50W dichroticI thought this would be a good idea for the lighting round the house in the soffit, but with 20 of them at 50W each that's too much to leave on all night. We used the 220V ones.The 12V versions one have the added expense and 50X is still 50W. We're going to change them for 5W energy saver bulbs in small recessed fittings. We're keeping the ones in the bathrooms.jazzmanFeb 08, 2009
Lonon_dimmer.jpg
DimmerI'm a firm fan of the bTicino brand, but because of budget and needing a lot of switches and sockets for this motel project, we're using Lonon brand fittings from China, bought in GlobalHouse. I've been testing some of this stuff for about 6 months and it seems ok. The range costs about half that of bTicino, which represents a big saving. The aesthetics are as good as bTicino, and don't have any ugly screws in the escutcheons like some far more expensive brands. Like bTicino, these can take 1, 2, or 3 mjazzmanFeb 08, 2009
bTicino_weatherproof.jpg
Weatherproof switchesbTicino weatherproof recessed switches. Excellent for switches or opwer in garden wall etc. The lid flips up but the switches can be pressed though the transparent cover. This 3-module unit can be equipped with switches and/or power sockets. Cost around 300 baht. bTicino also make a surface mounted one.jazzmanFeb 08, 2009
