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 solar cable requests in the area come from:

Homeowners: homeowners wire rooftop panels to a hybrid inverter to ride through load-shedding
Solar and backup power: solar installers buy 4mm and 6mm red and black cable by the drum for every install
Complexes and body corporates: complexes run solar cable from shared roof arrays to inverters powering common areas
Factories and workshops: factories use larger solar cable sizes on big warehouse roof arrays and combiner boxes
Offices: office parks run 6mm solar cable from carport and roof arrays to string inverters
Data and network installs: data centres and server rooms add solar arrays to support backup power systems
