Asher & Gad, you could make a lot of money if your market your knowledge to the Ghaniaina Citizens and the Diaspora.
This channel needs a much greater reach, there’s a whole lot of Ghanaians here and abroad who would appreciate this space… we need to get WODE MAYA to interview our man! ..
I would love him to project manage my work including costing.
Thanks for enlightening us to improve the safety and quality of buildings in Ghana. Share Asha and Gad's channel widely people 😊❤👍🏽
So nice of you
@@kingstal90 check this out. I just found it right after seeing your video.

U didn’t joke at all 👍🏿 Fast builder cash ready no long talk
This guy has an excellent insight, vast knowledge and experience working as either a construction manager, or project manager, may be a structure engineer role 🤔 perhaps architect. Possibly a lecturer in Quantity surveying 😉. Who said ....a site managerial role? Which is which ?
Hi Gad I like the way you explain things,my question is why don’t you open your company build to help Ghana .
You have motivated me a lot. I’m a fan. I have learned so much from you. I watch you every week. I live in the USA and I’m also building in Liberia. Again I say thanks for all your knowledge.
I’m learning so much from you about building, will be building soon in Ghana this year!❤️🙏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🇬🇭🇬🇭
An interesting and informative video. Simplified explained well done Team 🔥😍🇬🇭
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice one mate. Always on point with your educative videos. 👏 👍
Thanks
In Ghana here .Air termination Network should be 0.5 ohms .
Hi,
Many thanks for your tips on how we should safely wire and protect our homes in Ghana. I think you're the best on TH-cam in the country if not across the continent. Do you offer an inspection(snagging) and advisory service?
Thanks for this. Sometimes the current from electricity board is just too high even without any lightning strikes (at least in Nigeria), so I need to install a surge protective in my home.
although certain standard may specify 0.1 ohm's . Am electrician in Kumasi and professional plumber to. l do watching your channel you doing great job keep up
Thanks once again for sharing
Thanks well taken,please what do you use in measuring the buried rod resistance,also do they sell surge protection boxes in Ghana?Thank you so much for the insight.
A bacia multi meter set to OHMS will be enough. Alternatively a multifunctional electrical testing machine which a top electrician will have an all be used.
Woow
This is a subject I was contemplating the entire week. My Electrician had recommended that I install a lightening arrester, which I believe is the same as the lightening protection system you described. However, I wasn't sure if it was necessary, especially with the money involved. I was actually going to side bar you on this to get your thoughts; and voilà, you addressed it. I still haven't made my mind up if I should move forward with it. Your final advice please.
check if your neighbours have it, and also is your building part of the tallest in the hood? consider all that
@@derekg3230 Hi Derek, my area is developing, as people are continually building. However, I will ask some of the folks who have built and moved to the area, if they have it. Kindly shed some light on the tallest criterion you referenced. What is the relevance? Thanks.
@@denniscasely-hayford3245 when lightning strikes near your section, it’ll generally be picked by the tallest building
@@derekg3230 Thanks Derek. I appreciate your feedback. This will definitely guide me in making a decision.
In American I call this a lightning rod,which it reaches into the ground.
My Grandfather's large 2 story Wooden house had two lighting rods on the roof with 3/16" copper cable to 1/2" copper rod in the ground. edit( in the U.S.) House is over 100 years old and still standing.
Educative but too much lecture. Lots of talking. Yaaawn😊Show more please
I would really need you to come inspect my project and help with all these electricals.😢
@kingsley. can you give us a video of the cost breakdown of materials & labour needed for wiring your home, an ebook will also be appreciated thanks
Ok will do
One of my to do list items, nonetheless the ECG guys that gave you connection were suppose to check that prior to giving you connection.
Good you shared.
Regards
Mr. Bright from Bright&Clara's channel
🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️
I would you want to knw if u need a rod at every corner of the wall of it's just one rod for the lightning arrestor linked together for the rods coming up from the rod up there
This is down to design and engineering. There is a science behind this and a risk-assessment also. It depends on the nature of your roof. Your designer will need to look into that for you and advise. It is not a straightforward answer neither a one size fits all answer. The need for lightning protection also depends on the area you live in, the buildings around you/ their height, etc. history of lightning strikes in the area, etc, etc
And again u did mention of surge arrestor I want to know if that's will only work in the case of lightning or it works when we are experiencing a high voltage cos u know here in Ghana cases of voltage fluctuations is a common thing that's why I'm asking thanks
Hello Asha&Gad,nice house,would you guys ever thought of becoming a home builders?
Nice channel but can u sort out ur audio...voice very low have to really increase volume..soundtrack very high nearly blew my tv speakers
Not sure which editing software ur using...but if it has audio/ VU meter...then voice should peak at around -11 db and music peak at -9 db
Asha and Gad, can I use a *5 inch quarry dust block* to start my foundation...its actually a short building not a storey...
Very interesting.
Spot on with the explanation of Lightning Protection System. 👏💯
Just curious what type of earthing system arrangement is installed in the property e.g. TNS or TNCS.
Ghana domestic is TT
@@kingstal90 thanks
Asher, pls can you tell me the title of the intro song?
I love it so so much
What about single house?
Good morning
How much is your cost for electrical drawings for a 4 bedroom house. I also need your electrician number please.
Your knowledge on your profession has help me a lot. Thanks
