Hello,

We are trying to investigate the trend of the proportion of the population with access to electricity in their household in the developing countries based on the classification of wealth class. We further classify the individual level data into 20 wealth classes based on the weight and wealth index, but found abnormal trend in 2011 in several countries, including Benin, Burundi, Cote d'Ivoire, Ethiopia and Cambodia.

We looked into the classes in Benin for instance, as shown in the following figure, the wealth class categories based on weight seems strange. I am wondering about the wealth index and categorization. Could you please check the data format? Thanks!
