Cabling conditions in Secunda

Secunda exists because of its synthetic fuels complex and the coal mines that feed it. The plant and its contractors are among the biggest users of medium-voltage, instrumentation and flame-retardant cable in the province, with strict standards for hazardous areas. Planned company-town housing from the 1970s and 1980s is now being renovated, often with new DB boards and rewiring. Govan Mbeki Municipality supplies the town, and ageing infrastructure and theft have led many households to install solar and backup systems. Highveld lightning and frosty winters bring the usual need for surge protection and good-quality outdoor cable.
