INTRODUCTION
Electricity is a convenient form of energy for
technological processes and households;
However, access to electricity is not affordable for
many Tanzanians; and
The Research Project looked into the possibilities of
reducing the cost of house wiring.

BENEFITS OF
ELECTRIFICATION
Socio-economic benefits
o Improvement of living standards;
o etc.
Environmental benefits
o Reducing deforestation by minimizing the use of charcoal, wood,

COMPARISON OF WIRING
METHODS
For normal (conventional) wiring
o Technical aspects (standards, safety regulations, procedures and
approval); and
o Cost elements (materials, wireman, electrical contractors and
connection).
For low cost residential wiring
o Technical aspects (standards, safety regulations, procedures – to be developed and approval
(pending with TBS); and
o Cost elements (materials, wireman, electrical contractors and connection (TANESCO,
EWURA).

NEW ERA OF FREE MARKET ECONOMY
FOR TANZANIAN INDUSTRIES
New generation industries:
Flourishing
Innovative: process and product diversification
Market driven
Management with vision -no politics
Skilled and motivated workforce
Stiff global competition
Wide opportunities of ICT for tech. transfer
No in-house R&D.
Outcome:
Our R&D and Universities are stuck with their tech. innovations while, SMEs are
searching for technologies.
Demoralized engineering profession.
