Cabling conditions in Western Cape

In the Western Cape, cable work has to suit both a salty coastline and a busy winter rainfall season. Outdoor runs, distribution boards and glands near the sea need corrosion-resistant fittings, while wet winters expose poor joints and water ingress in older installations. Cape Town's municipal grid helped shield some customers from the worst load-shedding, but rooftop solar has still grown strongly across homes, wine farms and businesses, creating steady demand for PV and battery cable. Farms in the Boland and along the West Coast need long underground feeds to pumps, cellars and staff housing, and building activity in the city and coastal towns keeps wholesalers busy.
