Cabling conditions in Gauteng
Gauteng is the country's busiest market for electrical cable, from surfix for home renovations to armoured cable for factories, data halls and new townhouse developments. The Highveld sees some of the highest lightning activity in South Africa, so earthing, surge protection and correctly bonded cable runs matter on every job. Supply is split between municipal utilities such as City Power, Tshwane and Ekurhuleni and areas fed directly by Eskom, which affects connection applications and meter positions. Years of load-shedding pushed many homes and businesses towards solar and battery backup, and cable theft remains a serious problem, so buried and exposed runs are planned with security in mind.

Typical house wire requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: homeowners and electricians pull house wire through conduit for lights, plugs and geysers
- Solar and backup power: installers wire essential-load circuits and changeover boards with house wire
- Complexes and body corporates: complexes rewire older units with fresh house wire in the existing conduit
- Factories and workshops: factories use house wire in conduit for lighting, plugs and control circuits
- Offices: offices run house wire in trunking and conduit for small power and lighting
- Data and network installs: server rooms use house wire for dedicated plug circuits and lighting in conduit
