Generators in Randfontein
Randfontein is a West Rand mining and farming town where power interruptions are a regular part of life. Greenhills and Randgate homes use petrol or diesel backup for lights, fridges and security, while small businesses in the town centre keep sets running for tills and refrigeration. Gold mining operations toward Westonaria and Mohlakeng rely on heavy standby generators for pumps and ventilation. Smallholdings and poultry farms around the town need power for borehole pumps and heaters. Mine dumps and dirt roads raise plenty of dust, which quickly clogs air filters, and older units often arrive at workshops with neglected oil and coolant.
Typical automatic transfer switch requests in the area come from:
- Homes: a single phase ATS that starts the standby set during load-shedding while you are out
- Factories, mines and sites: large motorised transfer switches with phase failure detection and load priority
- Farms and smallholdings: automatic start for borehole, dairy and cold room loads when the rural line trips
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a three phase ATS that keeps tills, servers and fridges on supply within seconds
- Clinics, schools and towers: fast, logged transfer for clinics, cell towers and pump stations that cannot stop
- Estates and complexes: an ATS keeping gates, lifts and booster pumps running for every unit without a caretaker
Local conditions in Randfontein
In Randfontein, dust from mine dumps and dirt roads is what shortens a generator's life. Ask each technician or dealer to allow for it: frequent air filter changes and an oil and coolant service.
At about 1 700 m above sea level, expect roughly 8% less output than the nameplate rating from a naturally aspirated engine, and summer highs around 26 °C. Automatic Transfer Switch usually covers 5 to 1,000 kVA, diesel, petrol or LPG with electric start.
What to include in your request
- Give the generator kVA and whether it has electric start
- Say whether the supply is single or three phase
- Note the main breaker size on the board
- Mention any inverter or solar system already fitted
- Send a photo of the distribution board
The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.
