Hey buddy!! If you went to an electrical supplier with a word like electrical fittings, they will give you light fittings... When you talk of electrical light fittings we have so many out there in the market...fluorescent light fittings(600mm, 1200mm, 1500mm) and ratings (18W, 36W, 58W, 65W), CF Light fittings (16W, 28W), bulkhead fittings, batten holders, spotlights, recessed fittings etc Small power accessories...light switches, socket outlets, isolators, cooker control units, connection units, consumer units, mcbs, mccbs, online isolators etc... What do you need your electrical materials for buddy? ...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...

Your Buddy makes it hard for one to assist !!  Anyway, He Should Just go to CROSS LANE, Nyamakima, Huko Karibu na River road and he will get all the stuff he needs there. Its a stretch with several electricals shops selling wholesale and retail. He should then come here and thank @Ki-igangio and I. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..

Certainly those were two brands of wires. They have high, standard and low quality stuff and Those guys actually ask you...''Unaweka kwa nyumba yako ama ni rentals?'' meaning you need go for high quality fittings if its you are buying for your own house and vice versa Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..
