Our Valencia guest house build

Just a little. Update finish is going on the walls most of the electrical is done. trusses are getting welded again notice the feet welding with flip flops. floors are being tamped should be getting poured in the next week

 

That's some control box for a smallish House.

Jack...you beat me to the punch; a transfer switch and at least 10 circuits (just counting the PVC). Perhaps the panel will feed other buildings as I could not imagine there being 10 or so circuits in that guest house.

Every thing is looking good and seems to be coming together pretty quick.

I am a master electrician house is being wired to US standards each appliance has its own circuit refrigerator. microwave,hot water, all 3 A/C units, 2 lighting circuits, 2 GFCI circuits ( dirty kitchen,3 counter top. CR, outside outlets,) transformer and convenience recpts and drive way lights

 

I hear you, wired my house to US standards mostly. I could not find GFI receptacles so went with an Italian panel and Korean Din style GFCI breakers. Looks like you used a local panel that uses 2 pole breakers...did you bond your ground and neutral at the panel?

I put my fridge on its own circuit, 10 amp breaker. 2 appliance circuits as well; honestly it is 240 give or take here...I have never tripped a breaker and never will.

Curious where you got the GFCI breakers or receptacles.

It will be home for a year or so till we finish the main house. we also have a deal in the works to buy the lot next to us it has no access so the price is right we want to build 2-3 small 1br bungalows for rentals is the idea. we got in our property for a good price now the road is in the works prices are rising fast. I think the location is very quiet and secluded but close to town it would make a great location for expats.our total cost for lot and house right now is less than 1.3m pesos house cost about 800k and about another 100k+ for the last few touches
