Outdoor lighting in Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch is a university and winelands town, with oak-lined historic streets, student accommodation, Technopark offices and many wine estates and restaurants. Wine farms and wedding venues want festoon lighting, landscape and up-lighting for gardens and trees, and robust floods for cellars. Homes in Die Boord, Paradyskloof and Uniepark and estates such as De Zalze and Jonkershoek want garden and security lighting, and heritage and estate rules often control glare and fitting style. Winters are wet and cold, summers hot and dry with the southeaster. Solar is common during load-shedding. A registered electrician must issue a CoC for fixed wiring.
