UPS & portable power in Newcastle: local notes
Shops along Allen Street and at the malls near the N11 keep card machines and tills up with small UPS units. Clinics and practices in town ask about backup for fridges and computers. In Madadeni and Osizweni, families often choose a router UPS, a trolley inverter or a portable power station that needs no wiring, and electric fence energisers on farms get their own battery backup.
Power in Newcastle
In northern KwaZulu-Natal, Newcastle Municipality supplies the town and older suburbs, while townships such as Madadeni and Osizweni, and farms in the district, are often supplied directly by Eskom. Outages come from storms rolling off the Drakensberg escarpment, lightning, cable theft and faults on long rural lines. The steel works and the textile and clothing factories create demand for business backup and UPS units, while homes in Lennoxton, Aviary Hill and Signal Hill want the TV, fridge, lights and gate kept running. Farmers towards Utrecht and Dannhauser ask about borehole pumps and electric fences. Winters here are cold, and some lithium batteries will not charge below about 0 °C, so ask about where the bank goes.
The requests we see from Newcastle usually come from:
- Homeowners: a healthy alarm battery, backup for the cameras and the recorder on a UPS
- Factories, warehouses, schools and churches: camera rooms, perimeter beams and alarm panels backed up across warehouses and yards
- Farms and smallholdings: electric fence energiser batteries and backed up cameras at the gates and stores
