North West notes on ups & portable power
Offices in Mahikeng's government district and Rustenburg's CBD keep desktops and network switches on UPS units so work is saved when the power trips. Farmers along the N14 and the R52 use solar generators and power stations at cattle posts and borehole sites far from the house. In Klerksdorp and Orkney, security firms fit 12 V supplies with batteries to keep cameras and alarm panels watching through outages.
North West: the supply, the weather and the buildings
North West mixes the platinum belt with maize country, and the backup requests follow the money and the distances. Around Rustenburg and Brits, mines and their suppliers run large 3 phase systems, while nearby homes and complexes want ordinary inverter setups. Out towards Lichtenburg, Mahikeng and the western farms, Eskom lines run for kilometres, and a fault on one can take days to reach. Some municipal networks are also stretched, with ageing substations and local breakdowns. Borehole pumps, irrigation controllers, electric fences and farm fridges top the lists. Dry heat in summer and real frost in winter both test batteries in sheds, and lightning over the open plains makes surge protection worth asking for.
Typical portable power stations requests in the area come from:
- 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
- Factories, warehouses, schools and churches: stations for site offices, film shoots, outdoor events and maintenance teams in the field
