Interviewer instructions

Information on type of lighting used by the household will be recorded in codes.There may be households which do not burn even oil lamp or firewood to light their dwellings owing to their very poor economic condition. Such households will get code 1. Households using kerosene for lighting their dwellings will get code 2, those using electricity will get code 3 and others, code 9. If a household uses two or more of these lighting means, the code appropriate to the one used for longer duration will be entered.
