I have a room suppose to be used for video game, and have 1 aircond.
But later add on cctv n lotnof alarm system equipped
But i find that, the power supply that cater in that room not able to fulfill the demand. Light start to dim..like not enough power

So i need to add another wiring
Question is how much they charge per meter, to add more wiring?
I want the aircond wiring seperated from other electrical device
Need a "profersional witeman" and also cheap, any contact i can call?

What kind of electrical wire i need to use....does china made is safe to use?

AND any recommendes profersional wireman?

Why do you want to use china cable when malaysian made cable with sirim approval is cheap enough?

Please don’t skimp on wiring. Electrical fires is one of the main cause of fire incident worldwide.

Yes, don't take lightly on wiring. It's you and your family's life at stake here.
Do consider on the safety of the house.

Go for MEGA 2.5mm or 4mm cables for entire house wiring.

Loose or Corroded Neutral Wire

If the lights in your house are fluctuating between bright and dim, you could have a more serious problem on your hands. You might have a loose or corroded neutral wire in your circuit breaker. The circuit breaker contains three wires: the first is red or black (the "hot" wire) the second is white (the "neutral" wire) and the third is a green or bare (the "ground” wire) which is only used for safety purposes. The first two wires are responsible for providing power to your household circuit. The neutral wire simply provides a return path to earth ground in the electrical panel to complete the circuit. A broken neutral wire means that the return path to the electrical panel is incomplete, which can cause imbalances in the two main power wires. When your lights brighten they are receiving too much voltage, and when they are dimming, they are receiving too little. If this problem worsens, your electrical devices could end up receiving far too much or too little power and become damaged. Loose or bad connections are the major cause of fires and other safety hazards. Contact an electrician as soon as possible.

They don't charge by meter, they charge per point (per job).

Caramay 2.5mm cable - to give you an idea on cable cost. You will need 3x (L N E) so it will be around RM210 per 100m of cable.
Basically the standard stiff cable is either using Mega Kabel or Caramay. Mega if you want to do JKR project tender, but Caramay is also well accepted in industry.

Cheapo china cable is made from aluminium which is the same as putting Volvo FM10 emblem on a Kancil and expecting it to be able to pull the container trailer.

Where is your location?
