- HOA approval. Security estates in Fourways usually need the HOA or aesthetics committee to approve the panel layout first. Build that time into the plan.
- Sectional title. Flats and townhouses in Fourways need body corporate approval and often have limited roof space. A battery backup system is a common starting point.
- Clear winters. Dry, sunny Highveld winters mean output in Fourways drops far less in June than it does at the coast, but short days still matter for battery sizing.
- Pre-wired homes. Some newer developments in Fourways are pre-wired for an inverter. Tell installers, since it can cut labour.
Fourways Registration Requirements
Most properties in Fourways buy electricity from City Power, Johannesburg's municipal utility. City Power expects solar and installed battery systems to be approved before they are installed, even if you never export. Parts of Fourways are supplied directly by Eskom, so check who your bill comes from first.
- Pre-approval. An application to City Power's SSEG office, followed by a site inspection, before the system goes in.
- Documents. Single-line diagram, NRS 097-2-1 inverter certificate, then the CoC and PV commissioning form after installation.
- Metering. City Power fits a bidirectional smart meter at your cost and moves SSEG customers from prepaid to postpaid. Ask what that does to your fixed charges.
- Eskom accounts. If your bill comes from Eskom, register with Eskom instead. See SSEG registration.
