July the 2nd

Thursday

Today we carried on with installing the last 4 remaining spotlights at the guesthouse.At 10 am, a roll of suffix cable finaly arrived and now we can continue with the task at the guesthouse.

We finished installing the remining spotlights and all of them were connected from a plug point that used a day/night switch as a power source i.e. both lights and plugs cannot work during the day unless one covers the day/night switch with a black plastic to activate it.

Out of all the lights, one(1) light was'nt receiving power due to a broken wire inside the light therefore we opened the wire and joint it then after started to work.

Furthermore, as the 1st task is completed, now the 2nd task was to install 5 infra-red lights at the wild life center in a room were sick animals stay/sleep/being monitored.However,there are lights in the room but the idea of installing infra-red lights was to warm the room a bit without causing smoke or fire along with a heater(board heater) .Plugs were used as light switches for the 5 lights in that room.

As the busy day progressed, another task was assigned to us to install 3 plugs using 2 separete circuits at the mechanical workshop.Firstly, we started with mounting plugs on th wall(1 plug next to the door garage and the other two next to the door of the kitchen.we then aligned the cable and connected it to the plugs.Thereafter we connected the plugs to their circuits and tested them but the other circuit with two plugs kept on triping the earth leakage.Now we found out by tracing the connection that the neutral of the plugs was connected on the supply side where as it should have been connected on the neutral connected through the earth leakage.

However, after this task we met with Diederick to discuss our ideas and the business plan and the way forward to the future.Well the meeting went more than expected as we discussed alot of things and as a results he gave us the direction of were we should start.

In conculsion,this day is one of those good days as we covered alot of tasks in 1 day and i felt less tired than when we were assigned only 1 task.
