Here the participants were taught how to; select wires with certified quality for the safety of houses and buildings, fix plug-points and switches taking into account the distance and nature of the house/building, select wires to suit the number of lamps, laying of wires and other areas of crucial importance.
This comprehensive one-day workshop was inclusive of food and refreshments and was winded up by presenting certificates and gifts to the participants.
