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capital, the city has many government offices and schools, and Victorian brick buildings in the centre often carry outdated wiring.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.

Homeowners: homeowners replace damaged appliance cords and make up proper extension leads for the garden

Offices: offices buy flex for extension leads and to re-cord desk lamps and small kitchen appliances
Farms and smallholdings: farms use outdoor flex for portable pumps, shearing equipment and workshop power tools
Factories and workshops: factories use four- and five-core flex for portable machines, pendant controls and hoists
