Sorry mate, cant help you in that area.

My contact for all things electrical seems to only want to work local to Buriram CBD.

Pity, as he is a cut above the rest.

If no luck from Members online ..... drop member Pichai a personal message.

He runs a hardware store just outside Buriram and is well connected to many local contractors.

I use my local (Nongki) Provincial Electricity Authority for anything electrical that I can't do myself.
Don't know if Huairat has the equivalent, but if it hasn't I'm sure Buriram will have.
The quality  of the work has always been good and prices are reasonable.

That's interesting mxyzptlk ... I didn't know they sub contracted.

I guess if they work for the PEA they should be well qualified?

Yes there is a main PEA office just outside of Buriram ... just across the road from Pichais' building supplies shop.

I think they would need to be well qualified.
I've had a replacement consumer unit fitted by them and also a new feed from the pole to a new smaller consumer unit in my car port plus some earthed electrical outlets

The guy that wired my recently completed house is very good. Clean and tidy fittings, earth wires run every where. Very efficient.

I will try to contact him soon. I know he went away on a big job.
Title: Re: Qualified electrician Many thanks everyone. Really appreciate your replies.
