Cabling conditions in Free State

Much of the Free State's cable demand comes from farms, where boreholes, centre-pivot irrigation, grain silos and workshops sit hundreds of metres from the supply point. Those long runs need correctly sized armoured cable to avoid volt drop, and open plains with frequent summer thunderstorms make lightning protection and good earthing important. Bloemfontein and Welkom bring residential rewiring, shops and institutional work, while the Sasolburg area has petrochemical and industrial plants with heavier cable needs. Cable theft affects rural lines and pump installations, so many owners ask about burying cable deeper or protecting exposed sections. Solar pumping and backup systems have also become common on farms.
