Cabling conditions in KwaZulu-Natal

KwaZulu-Natal's humid coast is tough on exposed copper, terminals and steel accessories, so installers along the Durban coastline and the north and south coasts choose sealed enclosures, stainless or coated fittings and properly glanded armoured cable. Inland, the Midlands and northern areas get frequent summer thunderstorms, and lightning protection is a regular topic on farms and in rural homes. The ports at Durban and Richards Bay, heavy industry and sugar mills create demand for larger power cable and cable tray. Coastal estates and apartment blocks bring complex wiring work, while flooding in recent years has shown the value of well-routed, protected underground supplies.

Typical copper and aluminium cable requests in the area come from:

Coastal properties: coastal sites need well-sealed terminations because salt air speeds up corrosion
Homeowners: homeowners use copper cable for all circuits and sometimes aluminium for long supply runs
Factories and workshops: factories run heavy aluminium armoured feeders to motor control centres and machines
Complexes and body corporates: complexes feed blocks of units with aluminium sub-mains and copper cable inside each unit
Farms and smallholdings: farms run aluminium cable on long supplies to pump stations, barns and worker houses
Solar and backup power: solar installers use copper for DC and AC wiring, and aluminium on long feeders to large arrays
