Centurion notes on ups & portable power
Offices in Highveld Techno Park and Centurion's business district around the lake usually want a rack UPS for the server cabinet and smaller units on reception desks. Home offices in Wierda Park and Doringkloof buy router UPS units for the fibre box. Estates also ask for CCTV and alarm backup, so cameras along the perimeter keep recording while the power is off. Check whether the PoE switch is on backup too.
Centurion: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Centurion falls under the City of Tshwane, and its estates and townhouse complexes have grown faster than parts of the local network. Residents in Eldoraigne, Rooihuiskraal and Irene usually trace their outages to a faulty mini-substation, stolen cable along the main roads or a lightning strike during a summer storm. Body corporates are a big part of the work here: complexes want the gate, booms, guard hut, CCTV and sometimes a borehole pump backed up, then owners add their own inverter. Business parks along the N1 and in Highveld Techno Park ask for UPS systems on networks and servers. Check the estate rules before work starts, because many control where inverters and batteries may go.
Typical solar generators requests in the area come from:
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: a kit charging beside the guard hut for the radio, lights and the intercom
- Homeowners: a kit for lights, wifi and phones that recharges on the stoep during long outages
- Offices and home offices: a kit for a small office or home office to keep laptops and wifi going
