Get. An. Electrician.
- nicolas_t 5y agoDifficult to get a competent Electrician if he is in Thailand in the middle of nowhere. There's a lot to be said for countries with decent certification systems for electricians and I'm pretty sure Thailand doesn't come close to having that.
- TowerTall 5y agoI live on an small remote island. We only have two certified electricians and they are all super busy on constructions sites and don't have the time for this type of problems. We have Thai "electric men" at our disposal. When he did they grounding of the sockets I was very impressed with that he did not turn of the electricity at any point.

- spyckie2 5y agoThis is one of the benefits of the US that no one really talks about - the availability of real expertise. In Thailand I'm willing to bet electricians aren't licensed and you're going to gamble if the local electrician you call has the ability to problem solve issues like this.
- jhugo 5y agoIME, there are very competent electricians in Thailand but they are usually working on commercial or industrial sites. Otherwise, you can get lucky sometimes but more often than not they'll do "good enough" work that nonetheless has safety risks.
