Outdoor lighting in Welkom
Welkom was laid out for the Free State goldfields, and working mines, shafts and engineering yards still need flood lights, high-mast and perimeter lighting. Homes in Flamingo Park, Bedelia, Riebeeckstad and Doorn mostly want security lighting and motion sensors on walls, gates and backyards, plus some garden and patio lighting. Municipal streetlight outages and cable theft are a frequent complaint, which has made solar flood and solar street lights popular with residents and businesses. Maize farms around Odendaalsrus use solar at gates and stores. Summers bring heavy thunderstorms and lightning; winters are dry and frosty. Electricians must certify new mains circuits with a CoC.
Typical security lights requests in the area come from:
- Homes: motion sensor lights on the boundary wall, gate, side passages and back door
- Industrial sites: perimeter security lighting along palisade fences, gates and container stacks
- Municipalities, schools and clubs: vandal-resistant security lights at clinics, schools, depots and community halls
- Shops and offices: dusk-to-dawn lighting over shopfronts, loading doors and staff parking with CCTV
- Farms and smallholdings: sensor lights over farmhouse doors, sheds, workshops, fuel tanks and gates
- Estates and complexes: photocell lights along perimeter walls, guardhouses and electric fence lines
Choosing fittings for Welkom
The main thing that wears out outdoor lights in Welkom is lightning and power interruptions, so ask for solar-backed floods with surge-protected controllers, IP65. A cheaper fitting that fails after one season costs more than a good one once the electrician's call-out is added.
Security Lights usually come at IP54 to IP66, with 4000 K to 6000 K. 10 to 100 W, 230 V or solar.
What to include in your request
- List the walls, gates and passages to cover
- Choose motion sensor, photocell or both
- Mention existing CCTV, alarm or electric fence
- Say whether you have an inverter or want solar
- Ask whether a CoC is included
The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.
