Water Works 10 - Water System Problems

Today(30/10/60) the Tukang Paip and Electrician Abu were back from their raya holiday.

Few thing were highlighted to Tukang Paip, Zarkhan.

• Water leaks at ground floor near office area. Tukang Paip had to break the cement to isolate the broken paip. The broken paip was replaced.
• Ground floor water tanks over flows. The Ball Float Valve was missing, it was either not installed by developer or its been stolen. Tukang Piap replaced new Ball Float Valve to stop the water from the bulk meter when the tank is full.
• One of the main roof top water tank over flows. not rectified yet. may need Ball Flaot Valve.
• The tanks leaking at some nut and bolt area. not rectified yet.
• Roof top water sensors not working. not rectified yet. Electrician Abu is working on it.
• Water tank need to be cleaned. Last week, I alone manage to clean the tanks facing block B and the Main road. The tank facing Ukay Bistary and the 2 tanks in the center need to be cleaned.

Security Issue

Security issue.

Hj Basiron who was in-charge of security, had already fired the Rela night guard (En.Din) and the Rela Day guard( EN.Ramli). Reasons given was that the night guard was gambling and missing in action. The day guard was fired because he was absent attending Rela calls.

Hj.Basiron took over as security guard during daytime and he hired Pakcik Yani from the neighboring setinggan house as night time guard for Rm20 per night. Unfortunately Pakcik Yani resign after few days.

There was a break in on the 19Oct06 when Hj Basiron was away. Newly installed cables to 6 units from the Riser to the unit on the8(1 unit),9(4unit)&10(1 unit) floors were stolen again. The robberies took place a day after the electric suppy was energised to the common area by TNB.

To company Hj.Basiron n his wife, i have moved into my unit (A-9-8) on the 20Oct06. Cable to my unit was re-installed on the night of 20Oct06 by Electrician Abu so that i can put up there during this raya period. Mr.Anthony of A-5-10 and myself have requested police patrol from Melawati station. Police man in charge of the patrolling is Inspector Ng. On behalf of persatuan, we(Anthony, Sahfi n myself) have also hired an Indian security guard named Chandra to guard Estana Court at night, tentatively for 2 weeks at a rate of RM30 per/night during this raya holidays. Starting from 22Oct06 till 4Nov06.

Lift

Now, the electric power supply to the Lift Bomba is coming from TNB sorce and not Get-Set. The Lift bomba is tuned to the new power sorce and it is in operating condition. The electric power supply is supplied to the Lift Bomba since 19/10/06. The Lift is test run daily, so far the Lift operation is stable.

The Lift repair guys have checked the PassengerLifts and will give a details of the damage after raya holidays.

Electrical Works 8 - Re-Energizing MSB room

TNB power is in...

Monday 16/10/06, the TNB guys from Selayang Branch came but they were unable to re-energize the TNB room because the capacity of the power was too high for them to handle. As such, they contacted engineers from another brach to energize the MSB room.

Tuesday 17/10/06, 2 TNB engineers came and re-energised the electric supply to MSB room. Electrician Abu together with 2TNB contractor, checked the supply and activated the common area lighting.

Electrical Works 7 - Cables from Riser to Units

Replacement and re-installation of cables from the Riser Room to individual units are in progress. The Riser room is where the TNB individual electric meter will be stationed.

As we all know, most of the cable from the Riser to individual units were stolen by unknown scumbags. The electric cables inside our units are still okay, but the cables from the unit to the meter are mostly missing. Some cables were simply damaged/vandalized by cutting it in many places making it unusable.

Since cash in-flow is low, the cable replacement will be done, only to selected units. So that at least some of the units will be occupied for the time being. The priority will be given to those who have paid the revival contribution RM2000 plus the TNB meter deposite of RM120.( paid long ago to Shazwan @Sam).

The stolen/missing Common area supply cables in the ground floor from MSB room and Gen-Set already been replaced( last month). The cables in the ground floor is the easiest to steal or sabotage and yet the cable from the Riser to individual Units were not stolen. Thats weird.

New rolls of cable purchased. The lenght of each roll is 100meter and the size(area) is 10mm(2) . Each unit requires 3 cables:- Live, Neutral and Earth.

These are standard cable connector, made of cast copper with tin plated.

Ukay Bistari's Retaining Wall 3

Electrical Works 6 -TNB seal

Electricity deposite of RM10000 was already paid about 2 months back at Melawati TNB branch.

Re-energizing the TNB supply is taking time as there are 3 separate departments from 3 different area are involve. Electrician Abu is doing the communication with all the 3 branches to re-energize electricity to the MSB room.

1. TNB Melawati: For account registration and meter.
2. TNB Kepong : For meter panel, meter and fuse seal checking.
3. TNB Selayang: For energizing meter electric supply.

The meter panel have to be sealed with TNB seal to prevent tempering. A penalty will be charged if any broken seal was detected by TNB people after the electric was activated and meter start working. So the seal was important to be in place first before electric is energized.

On 3/10/06, the TNB guys from Kepong branch came and checked and sealed the meter panel.
Now we are waiting for the TNB guys from Selayang to come and energize the electric meter. Our electric contractor, Abu is communicating with the TNB guys.

Kepong TNB guy are checking the meter panel.
