The Energy Commission has taken steps to upgrade the competence of electrical wiring contractors to help reduce\u00a0the high incidents of domestic fires, resulting from poor wiring.<\/p>\n

Mr. Solomon Sarpong, Principal Programmes Officer of the Commission, said series of training programmes had been lined up to aid them to do things professionally.<\/p>\n

He was speaking at a day\u2019s workshop organized for selected electrical wiring professionals in Kumasi.<\/p>\n

The programme was put together by the Commission and Nexans Kabelmetal Ghana, a local cable manufacturing company.<\/p>\n

This comes against the unacceptably high proportion of domestic fire outbreaks attributable to the installation of faulty cables and appliances.<\/p>\n

Mr. Sarpong said the situation needed to change to ensure the safety of people and property.<\/p>\n

The Commercial Head of Nexans, Mr. Bani urged electrical contractors to avail themselves of refresher courses, to sharpen their skills and bring efficiency to their work.<\/p>\n

He indicated that electrical wiring was a critical component in the built industry and said any shoddy work could endanger the lives of the people.<\/p>\n

They should uphold high standards of professionalism \u2013 demonstrate better understanding of the job specification, mode of work and the necessary materials for the execution of any contract.<\/p>\n
