Cabling conditions in Rustenburg
Rustenburg is the centre of the world's largest platinum mining region. Mines, concentrators and smelters use large amounts of trailing, armoured and medium-voltage cable, and contractors provide ongoing maintenance and fault finding. Black turf clay common in the area swells when wet and cracks in dry winters, which can damage shallow cable and joints. Rocky ground near the Magaliesberg makes trenching difficult. New estates and complexes for mine staff need full wiring, while Rustenburg Local Municipality and Eskom supply different areas. Summer thunderstorms and cable theft add to the need for surge protection and secure routing.

Typical welding cable requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: mines use tough rubber welding cable for plant maintenance and repairs underground
- Factories and workshops: fabrication factories use 50mm and 70mm welding cable on heavy machines and long leads
- Complexes and body corporates: maintenance contractors at complexes use portable welders with flexible leads for gate and fence repairs
- Homeowners: hobby welders buy short 16mm or 25mm leads for small home workshop machines
- Builders and developers: builders and steel erectors run 35mm welding cable across sites for structural steel
