Brits notes on ups & portable power
Offices at factories in the Brits industrial area use online UPS units for servers and network racks. Guesthouses and restaurants at Hartbeespoort back up card machines, tills and wifi. In Letlhabile and Mothutlung, router UPS units and rechargeable emergency lights are common. Boat and caravan owners at the dam use power inverters and portable power stations, and estates back up CCTV and alarm panels.
Brits: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Brits mixes a manufacturing and automotive parts industry with irrigated farming along the Crocodile River and weekend homes around Hartbeespoort Dam. The Madibeng Local Municipality supplies much of the town, Eskom supplies many farms, villages and dam areas directly, and some parts of the local network are old and prone to faults. Cable theft and summer storms add to the interruptions. Factories in the Brits industrial area want backup for offices and critical lines, farms ask about pumps for irrigation and boreholes, and homeowners around the dam want wifi, lights and the gate to keep going. Fit surge protection and check that any grid-tie inverter is registered with the supplier.
Typical portable power stations requests in the area come from:
- Factories, warehouses, schools and churches: stations for site offices, film shoots, outdoor events and maintenance teams in the field
- Homeowners: a power station in the lounge running wifi, lights, the TV and phone chargers
- Farms and smallholdings: a station for the farmhouse, the bakkie or a remote camp without mains power
