Generators in Mahikeng
As the provincial capital, Mahikeng has government buildings, a hospital, a university and an airport that all need dependable standby power, yet the town's water and electricity networks have suffered repeated breakdowns. Homes in Mmabatho and Riviera Park, and businesses in the centre, use generators for outages that stretch for days, while cattle farms towards Zeerust and Lichtenburg rely on them for boreholes at the end of long rural lines. Dry, dusty conditions and summer heat are tough on air filters and cooling, and winter frost catches weak batteries. Technicians are fewer here than in larger centres, so a service contract with a local or Rustenburg-based workshop makes sense.
Typical three phase generators requests in the area come from:
- Clinics, schools and towers: standby power for a clinic, school, water pump station or cell tower
- Homes: a large house on a three phase supply with a pool pump, borehole and heat pumps
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a canopied genset backing up air conditioning, lifts and a commercial kitchen
- Farms and smallholdings: a diesel set behind the borehole, irrigation pumps, dairy and cold room
- Lodges, venues and events: a silent three phase set keeping a lodge kitchen, laundry and pumps running
Local conditions in Mahikeng
The main thing that wears out generators in Mahikeng is dust, heat and long outages, so ask for a large fuel tank, heavy-duty filters and a service contract. A set that is looked after for local conditions starts first time when the power goes off.
At about 1 280 m above sea level, expect roughly 3% less output than the nameplate rating from a naturally aspirated engine, and summer highs around 31 °C. Three Phase Generators usually covers 10 to 500 kVA, diesel.
What to include in your request
- List your three phase motors and their kW ratings
- Say whether it is standby or prime (continuous) power
- Give your main breaker size and supply type
- Mention the site altitude, dust or coastal exposure
- Ask for installation, ATS and CoC on the same quote
The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.
