The Wiring Is What Makes Backup Power Safe
Our Somerset West electrical team wire inverter and battery backup systems into Somerset West homes properly. The inverter itself is half the job — the other half is the wiring that connects it to your DB board: splitting essential circuits (lights, plugs, internet, fridge) onto the backed-up side, installing a changeover or transfer switch so the inverter and mains can never feed each other, and protecting everything correctly. Done wrong, backup power can back-feed the grid and endanger municipal workers, or quietly overload an inverter that was never sized for the geyser someone left on the wrong circuit.
What We Do
We install and certify the electrical side of backup systems: essential-circuit identification and DB board splits, changeover switches and inverter integration for owner-supplied or new units, dedicated circuits and protection for battery systems, and tidy mounting and cable management. Already have an inverter that was installed informally? We inspect, rewire what's wrong, and certify it.
Why Certification Matters Here More Than Anywhere
Any inverter or battery installation is an alteration to your electrical installation — it must be done by a registered electrician and covered by a Certificate of Compliance. An uncertified system invalidates your existing CoC, which surfaces at the worst moments: insurance claims after a fire, or a property transfer where the buyer's inspector flags the installation and the sale stalls. We issue the CoC with every installation.
Sized Honestly
We assess what you actually need backed up and size accordingly — most homes need lights, plugs, internet, and the fridge, not the geyser and stove. WhatsApp photos of your DB board to 060 985 5047, tell us what must stay on, and we'll quote the wiring the same day.
