Question 11:- What type of lighting does the housing unit have?
Since lighting is one of the basic services that should be made available. The objective of this question is to assess the distribution of electricity all over the country and also to identify the type of lighting that housing units have. The enumerator shall mark the correct code of the type of lighting that the housing unit have among the given alternatives;-
1 = Electricity, Meter private
2 = Electricity, Meter shared
3 = Electricity from generator (No meter)
4 = Solar energy
5 = Lantern
6 = Bio-gas
7 = Kerosene lamp
8 = Candle/ wax candle
9 = Firewood
N.B:- In some small towns electricity is supplied without a meter simply because the service is charged by the number and watt of bulbs that the customers are using. In such a case code 3 should be marked who so ever the service provider is, be it private providers or the Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation.
