Cabling conditions in North West
Platinum mining around Rustenburg and Brits drives much of North West's demand for armoured, mining and industrial cable, along with the contractors and workshops that serve the mines. Elsewhere, maize and cattle farms around Lichtenburg, Vryburg and Klerksdorp need long cable runs to boreholes and outbuildings, and the flat, open landscape is exposed to summer lightning. Cable theft is a recurring problem around mining towns and on farm supplies. Weekend and retirement homes around Hartbeespoort Dam and the Magaliesberg add residential and solar work, and Potchefstroom's university and growing suburbs keep electricians busy with new builds, rewiring and backup power installations.

Typical solar cable requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: mines use solar cable on ground-mounted arrays supplying offices and remote sites
- Farms and smallholdings: farms wire solar panels to borehole pumps and off-grid farmhouse systems
- 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
- Builders and developers: developers pre-wire new homes with solar cable routes ready for future panels
- Shops and retail: shopping centres wire large rooftop arrays to cut daytime electricity costs
