Which is why allot of plumbers hate it since now a home owner can do allot of there own work. Lucky for me people are still scared of electricity.Make sure when new electricity enters your home that it goes through the onboarding process and that you give it a handbook. That way, if it doesn't follow rules, at least you can take disciplinary action.Pipes require experience to seal them well. It's a bit of an art. Electricity is more of a "make good contact and that's it" when making connections. And connections and simple work is what most homeowners do. If you're smart with cutting power electric is a lot easier without prior hands on experience.
Sure it follows rules, until the circuit starts getting complicated and then you find out that fault being indicated isn't happening and the output is fine and the fault detection circuitry is working fine ; but yep, there's the signal for the fault detection; but there's no fault in the fault detections; so I replace an entire drawer of electronics and the problem goes away; so I put the old one back in and swap each part out individually and the fault is still there; so check all of the inputs and outputs for the box and they are all fine but it's still detecting a fault!
Lol, there was someone on reddit posting about his electrical situation in Lebanon. Outages constantly, but what struck me was that he said sometimes the power used to switch between 220V and 110V without warning. Now that would suck.Agree. Once electric work is planned to code, done, and tested it is all set. Plumbing is more of a skill that takes experience and even then you find out what looked perfectly fine at first is now leaking everywhere. At least when I do it.If this is something that they've been doing for a while then chances are pretty good based on the simple fact that easily corroded pipes (iron for example) would be dissolved to nothingness already.
There are indeed plans for a desalination plant, however it would supply only a small fraction of Hong Kong's total water needs, and it's been in the planning stage for many years.The last time a desalination plant was built in Hong Kong, it was barely used and then shut down because fuel prices skyrocketed, making it uneconomical. It was eventually demolished. Hopefully the cycle doesn't repeat itself.And yet Hong Kong also has among the highest per-capita water consumption rates anywhere (220 liters per day, last I heard), and yet has some of the lowest water rates in the world (most major cities charge 5-7 times more for fresh water.)
