On March 19, 2026, I addressed an audience of over 300 certified electricians and contractors at a seminar organized by in Kumasi.
The presentation, titled “Smart Cable Choices: Balancing Safety, Efficiency, and Cost,” underscored the responsibility of electrical practitioners as key stakeholders in promoting safety, efficiency, and sustainability.
Key points included:
• Electrical practitioners are front-liners in safeguarding premises.
• Decisions made during design, construction, and commissioning have long-term environmental and operational impacts.
• Practitioners must move beyond upfront cost considerations and adopt lifecycle performance as a guiding principle.
The seminar reinforced the need for smart, sustainable practices in the electrical industry to ensure safer and more efficient built environments.
