Compare Solar Installers RandburgRandburg Conditions That Affect Solar
- DB upgrades. Many older homes in Randburg need a new distribution board or an essential circuit board before solar goes in. Get it priced as its own line.
- Business premises. Business premises in Randburg mostly run in the day, which suits grid-tied solar with little or no battery.
- Sectional title. Flats and townhouses in Randburg need body corporate approval and often have limited roof space. A battery backup system is a common starting point.
- Longer outages. Parts of Randburg see outages from cable theft and substation faults on top of load reduction. Size the battery for your longest usual outage.
- Lightning. Gauteng has some of the highest lightning activity in South Africa. DC and AC surge protection and proper earthing should be on every quote in Randburg.
Randburg Registration Requirements
Most properties in Randburg 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.
- 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.
Checking an Installer
- Aftercare. Who responds to faults and what a call-out costs.
- Warranties in writing. Equipment and workmanship, with periods and conditions.
- Inverter model number. Checked for NRS 097-2-1 certification before you pay a deposit.
- Itemised quote. Inverter kW, usable battery kWh, panel wattage and brands.
