Cabling conditions in Northern Cape

The Northern Cape has some of the strongest sunshine in the world, and large solar parks around Upington, De Aar and Prieska have made it a centre of renewable-energy construction, with plenty of DC and medium-voltage cable going into the ground. Iron ore and manganese mines near Kathu, Postmasburg and Hotazel use heavy mining cable. Distances are vast, so farm and town supplies often need careful volt-drop calculation, and extreme summer heat reduces cable ratings on exposed runs. Hard, stony ground and calcrete can make trenching slow and costly. Kimberley's older homes need rewiring, while irrigation farms along the Orange River rely on pump supplies.
