Hi. Thank you. Well I clarify that in the light keys I tin the wires ... if I change an appliance I put a terminal block ... I use terminals on boards so that my work is more neat ... I use approved quality materials nothing of normalized. It should also be clarified that I am from Lanus and I charge less than what you said, 55% less to people in the neighborhood ... and I am willing to listen and read advice from others who know more than me ...
Well, I'm Diamond Villa. I am two blocks from the Claridad sports club. Well I mean those trout cables that say normalized ... which are trout ... the roll instead of weighing 4kilos, weighs 2kilos example I give nothing more. I have also seen corrugated pipes that are the same plastic as the containers of lavandina and melt like a candle ... and also outlets and keys that break dr nothing ... that is what I mean
It's true ... but that says normal does not mean anything, it's just a word
Should say:
1- who dictates the standard (IRAM, IEC etc)
2- standard code, for example the unipolar pvc conductor must respond to IRAM NM 247-3. Eye, do not confuse with 247-5 which is something else
3- the laboratory that approves the product, that is to say that it certifies that the product really complies with the standard, example UL
4- must carry the electrical safety seal that is a double circle with an S
Just there you can say the product is standardized and in fact it is an obligation that it is
Hi Nastor Thank you. If I asked why, as things are in the country, you don't have to tell them sometimes because with everything that is happening, it will not seem expensive ... I also want to give away the work. I want to be honest with them and charge them something that will help me and that they can pay me ... for example a neighbor wants me to do a cable installation in one piece and not how much to charge ...
Hi. A couple of weeks ago a client called me because an air of 2500 refrigerators, connected to the general line was not working (there was a lack of food); between organizing myself, I checked the distribution boxes and established the problem (in the plastic ceiling something had failed and there was no power to the outlet, I was not the one who did the Berreta installation); that and looking for commerce in the four meters of cable channel took me two hours, plus an hour of laying the cable channel, cables and the connection; total three long hours, so I charged 900 pesos, and I left all morning; but I could not charge
Well, I offer them to buy the materials because several times the customers bought very cheap things and they were trout. And it looks bad because they bought trinkets. Well then I think it costs a neighbor well ... because of an iron pipe that entered through the terrace the cables of the board that is in the street and were 5 meters of main pipe entered. I took the old iron pipe and replaced it with a rigid pvc pipe and put it neatly by the wall until I reached the board of the home ... the pipes with metal clips ... and it took me about 3 hours and a half plus 40min to buy.
And I charged 1500. With materials included. In materials spend 200. And labor 1300. Everything is fine. I left everything very clean and the work was all finished.
Good. I will take into account the "sowing" that you said and I will try to be more reasonable ... now that I read your advice I have another perspective and I think that my next job will be charged more reasonably.
???????????? nastor was carero? It doesn't offend me ... I'm going to think about what you said ... and take it into account. Regards. Thanks for your time guys
Rodrigo, if you did the job, you charged and the client didn't make a bad face, everything is fine.
I recognize that at the time of charging, many times I fall short, although in the last month, I had a couple of episodes where I was kicked to give work to people outside the trade because I paid less; That is an indication of the time.
For the one who does a job on the street, one of the strengths is knowing how to sell it, I can advise you on electricity, but no more than that, the rest is very subjective. I never intend to offend Rodrigo. you can be sure.
Thanks Nastor. What I mean is that for me your criticisms or opinions are welcome based on experience ... I meant that with no offense ... once again. I thank you for the time you took to answer my questions ... thanks!
