One of the things that baffles me here is how Thai's will mix nomex wire. I just suffered through this recently. I went to switch out an outdoor light to a 30w LED deal and they pulled 2 wire nomex versus 3. Funny thing though they pulled 3 wire to switch and ran 2 wire from switch to light. Anyway now I am going to pull out the 2 wire and pull 3 wire as the Philips LED requires a ground which exists from Earth to Breaker to light switch.
Overall there are some very competent Thai electricians. Not all of them are hacks. My first question to them would be "Do you know what a wire nut is?" If they don't then expect everything to be black electrical taped and as we all know, tape in these parts falls off after the adhesive gets soft from the heat.
