Helnes Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 13 years ago, we built a house in Thailand, about 1 hour drive south of Khon Kaen. As we are living in Norway, the house was built without our 100% supervision, and the electrical system is not what it should be. There are no safety devices on the system itself, only RCD on the water heaters. In order to get this fixed properly once and for all, I am looking for some electrical contractors who can do the work for me. Preferably someone who speak English well. This would be somewhere in the area around Khon Kaen, or even better, Phon. Thanks. Gunnar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 This would be better in the Isaan forum for local input. Link left in Electrical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlyai Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 @Helnes From past experience, even with an electrical contractor, you should try and be there this time.You're a long time dead. Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helnes Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Ok. Thank you for answers. Yes, I will be there 2-3 weeks in autumn this year, and this was when I planned to get the el. system overhauled. I am sure I can find some contractors in Khon Kaen, but it will take some time to find a good one. I was just wondering if anyone had good experience with some.

shaemus Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Hi i live not far from Muang Pon. I am an electrician, my English is good, thai not so good. PM to speak directly Shaemus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malt25 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Looks like Shaemus could be your answer. If not, contact your local PEA office. A few years back I needed a "good & qualified" sparky for some major renovations I was having carried out. I asked the guys in the PEA office if they could recommend someone. Turned out one of their staff in the planning dept did after hours work. Spoke reasonable English & workmanship was as good as I've seen anywhere in Oz. Worth a try.
