FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the things clients ask us most.

Where do you operate?

We're based in South Africa and quote on projects nationwide. Site work and callouts are arranged per project — tell us where you are and we'll confirm availability.

Do you handle supply-only orders?

Yes. Many clients use us purely for procurement — instrumentation, electrical equipment and consumables — with no installation required. Send us your parts list for a quote.

Is your work compliant with regulations?

All electrical work is carried out in line with the OHS Act and applicable SANS standards, including SANS 10142 for low-voltage installations, with supporting documentation where applicable.

How fast is your turnaround?

We respond to every enquiry within one business day and aim to quote just as quickly. Supply lead times depend on OEM stock — we confirm dates before you commit.

Do you do site callouts and breakdowns?

Yes — fault diagnosis and repair callouts during business hours, with after-hours support by arrangement. Get in touch to discuss a maintenance agreement for your site.

Which brands do you supply?

We procure across major OEMs — Siemens, Schneider Electric, ABB, Endress+Hauser, WIKA and more — and can source equivalents on request. If it's specified on your drawings, we can usually get it.
