Generators in Tzaneen
Tzaneen sits in a subtropical valley of mango, avocado, citrus and banana farms, with tea estates and forestry higher up towards Magoebaskloof and Haenertsburg. Packhouses and cold stores cannot lose power during harvest, so farms run large standby sets, and irrigation pumps hang off long rural lines that storms and falling trees often bring down. Lodges and guesthouses in the mountains depend on generators to keep guests comfortable. Heat and heavy humidity make the region hard on equipment: condensation corrodes terminals and alternator windings, and mould grows in idle canopies. Local technicians do most services and repairs, and parts arrive from Polokwane or Gauteng within a day or two.
Typical three phase generators requests in the area come from:
- 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
- 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
- Clinics, schools and towers: standby power for a clinic, school, water pump station or cell tower
Local conditions in Tzaneen
The main thing that wears out generators in Tzaneen is humidity and condensation, so ask for anti-condensation heater, sealed control panel and regular exercise runs. A set that is looked after for local conditions starts first time when the power goes off.
At about 700 m above sea level there is no real altitude derating, but summer highs around 30 °C call for good airflow around the set. 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.
