About This Statistic

Average wait, in days, experienced to obtain electrical connection from the day this establishment applied for it to the day it received the service.

MapTheory uses only finite ISO-mapped observations from the fixed 2025 World Bank slice recorded below. Aggregates, missing values, non-ISO geographies, conflicting duplicate observations, and every other year or dimension slice are excluded; MapTheory never imputes or interpolates missing countries.

Methodology

Average wait, in days, experienced to obtain electrical connection from the day this establishment applied for it to the day it received the service.
