Cabling conditions in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg lies in a bowl in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, an area known for frequent summer lightning. Strikes regularly damage appliances, gate motors and inverters, so surge protection, good earth electrodes and correctly bonded metalwork are common requests. As the provincial capital, the city has many government offices and schools, and Victorian brick buildings in the centre often carry outdated wiring. Msunduzi Municipality supplies most of the city, while the dairy and timber farms around Howick and Camperdown rely on Eskom rural lines and long feeds to milking sheds and pumps. An aluminium rolling mill and other factories need heavy industrial cabling.

Typical cable tray requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: large homes run wire mesh tray in the roof for solar, data and sub-DB cables
- Municipal and public works: municipal substations, pump stations and public buildings use galvanised tray for control and power cables
- Offices: office fit-outs use tray above ceilings and under raised floors for power and network cabling
- Farms and smallholdings: farms run tray in pack houses, dairies and pump rooms to keep cables off wet floors
- Factories and workshops: factories run heavy-duty ladder tray along trusses to feed machines and distribution boards
