Backing up in Western Cape
Western Cape owners often think about backup in winter, when cold fronts bring gale force wind, heavy rain and toppled lines. The City of Cape Town supplies much of the metro, Eskom supplies other parts of it and many rural areas directly, and towns such as Stellenbosch, George and Hermanus run their own networks. Storm damage, cable theft and substation faults are the usual causes of outages today. Homes want wifi, lights, the fridge and the gate covered; wine farms want cellars and cold rooms protected; offices and clinics need computers running. Many municipalities here ask owners to register inverters connected to the supply, so check with yours. Salt air near the sea is hard on metal cabinets.
