Strong gusts bring down lines and blow debris into overhead equipment, and cable theft and substation faults add to the cuts in parts of the city. Homes in Walmer, Summerstrand and Lorraine ask for inverters with lithium banks, while flats in Central and Humewood often choose plug-in units. Component suppliers to the automotive industry in Markman and Struandale ask for factory UPS and office backup, and there is steady work in shops and clinics in Newton Park. The sea air is salty and the wind carries it a long way inland, so ask how terminals and enclosures are protected.
