KwaZulu-Natal notes on backup systems & services

Homes in Durban North, La Lucia and Westville ask for hybrid inverters on an essential circuit, while complexes in Umhlanga Ridge and Ballito want backup for gates, booms and common lights. Factories in Pinetown, Westmead, Jacobs and Prospecton ask for 3 phase systems that hold production lines and cold rooms. Dairy farms around Howick, Mooi River and Underberg need milking machines and milk coolers covered.

KwaZulu-Natal: the supply, the weather and the buildings

Moisture is the enemy of backup kit on the KwaZulu-Natal coast. Salt air in Umhlanga, Ballito and the South Coast corrodes terminals and steel cabinets, and summer humidity makes a closed garage a poor place for an inverter. eThekwini supplies Durban and its suburbs, Msunduzi supplies Pietermaritzburg, and Eskom supplies large rural areas and some towns directly. Heavy rain, flooding, lightning, cable theft and local network faults all cut power, at times for long stretches. Homes want fridges, lights, wifi and gates kept going; businesses in Pinetown and Richards Bay want production and cold chains protected; Midlands farms need milking sheds and pumps running. Ask about corrosion resistant enclosures and surge protection.

Typical home battery backup requests in the area come from:

  • Homeowners: lights, wifi, TV, fridge, gate and alarm kept on through evening and overnight outages
  • Complexes, estates and body corporates: a townhouse backup sized for one unit, with the body corporate approving the mounting spot
  • Factories, warehouses, schools and churches: staff housing and caretaker cottages on factory or school grounds given their own backup
