Hi & welcome.

Welcome along.

This is the introductions thread.......suggest starting a new thread in the electrical section.

A contractor should have the required know how to do a job. For instance he should know how to select a cable for an induction motor handling a particular type of load and a method of starting. I never expected such a reply from a developed country.

I suggested you start a thread in the CORRECT area as more people associated with electrical work will look there rather than the INTRODUCTIONS forum.
