Backing up in Mahikeng
As the provincial capital, Mahikeng has many government offices, a university campus in Mmabatho and a wide spread of villages and cattle farms towards the Botswana border. The Mahikeng Local Municipality supplies parts of the town, while Eskom supplies many villages, farms and other areas directly. Long rural lines, summer storms with lightning, cable theft and local faults all cause outages. Public servants and families in Golfview and Riviera Park back up lights, wifi and the fridge. Small shops and spaza owners want fridges and card machines covered, and cattle farms ask about borehole pumps and electric fences. Hot, dry summers mean batteries should not sit in a tin shed.

- Homeowners: an inverter and battery fitted on an essential circuit, with a CoC, in a day
- Offices and home offices: an inverter wired to office circuits after hours so work is not interrupted
