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.

Choosing fittings for Upington

The main thing that wears out outdoor lights in Upington is kalahari heat, UV and fine dust, so ask for dust-tight IP66, UV-stable housings and high-temperature batteries. A cheaper fitting that fails after one season costs more than a good one once the electrician's call-out is added.

Sports Field Lighting usually come at IP65 to IP66, with 4000 K to 5700 K. 200 to 1,500 W, 230/400 V.

What to include in your request

  • Name the sport and the field or court size
  • Say whether you need training or match levels
  • Mention existing masts or poles
