Outdoor lighting in Upington
Upington sits on the Orange River in the Kalahari, surrounded by vineyards, raisin farms and date plantations, and close to some of the country's largest solar power plants. That sunshine makes solar outdoor lighting an easy choice for farmhouses, packsheds, gates and long driveways, as well as homes in Upington Central and Paballelo. Riverside guesthouses on Kanoneiland and towards Kakamas want warm patio and path lighting. Summer temperatures are extreme, UV breaks down plastics quickly and fine Kalahari dust gets into poorly sealed fittings. Lodges near the Kgalagadi favour dark-sky-friendly lighting. Electricians in town handle mains wiring and issue a CoC.
Typical outdoor lighting installation requests in the area come from:
- Farms and smallholdings: long armoured cable runs to sheds, gates and kraals with isolators at each building
- Homes: a new garden circuit, wall lights at doors and a sensor flood over the driveway
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: path, terrace and garden circuits for lodges and venues on separate switching zones
- Shops and offices: parking and facade lighting circuits with timers, contactors and a CoC for the tenant
- Municipalities, schools and clubs: park and sports field lighting circuits with buried cable and street-level isolators
- Industrial sites: yard floods and perimeter lighting on dedicated circuits with surge protection
