Cabling conditions in Potchefstroom

Potchefstroom is a university town on the Mooi River with a strong agricultural base. Student housing, apartment blocks and townhouse complexes create steady demand for wiring, sub-mains and prepaid metering. Dolomite underlies parts of the area, so engineers sometimes specify flexible routing and careful trenching to cope with ground movement. The surrounding farms grow maize and other crops and need long cable runs to irrigation pumps and boreholes. JB Marks Municipality supplies the town, and many households and businesses have added solar for backup. Summer storms bring lightning, so surge protection and good earthing matter.
