Outdoor lighting in Mahikeng

Mahikeng is the provincial capital, so government buildings, schools and public facilities sit alongside family homes in Mmabatho, Riviera Park and Golf View, and cattle farms stretching towards Lichtenburg and Zeerust. Many households use outdoor lighting mainly for security on walls, gates and yards, and solar flood lights are popular because load-shedding and municipal outages are common. The climate is hot and dry with strong sun, and summer storms bring lightning. Farms use solar for kraals, boreholes and long driveways, and lodges near Madikwe prefer warm, low-glare lighting. Electricians from town install mains fittings and issue a CoC for fixed wiring.
