Electrical Capacity Assessments in Pretoria

Make the decision before the installation

Overloaded systems, nuisance tripping and unexpected upgrade costs often begin with an untested assumption about available capacity. Kuyper Electrical Services provides electrical capacity assessments for commercial, industrial, retail and institutional facilities in Pretoria and Centurion.

Typical assessment scope

• Review of incoming supply, metering and main distribution
• Load logging and maximum-demand analysis where required
• Phase balance, spare capacity and protection review
• Assessment of proposed additions such as air-conditioning, equipment, tenants, generators or solar
• Clear findings with practical upgrade options

The result is a technical basis for budgeting, landlord discussions, utility applications or detailed design. For a remote review of drawings and load information, our engineering rate is quoted according to the agreed scope. Request an assessment.

Capacity assessment questions

Is a spare breaker proof of spare capacity?

No. Spare space in a distribution board does not establish the capacity of the incoming supply, cables, protection or upstream network. Those constraints need to be considered alongside actual and proposed demand.

Do all assessments require load logging?

The approach depends on the available information and the decision required. Drawings, supply details and equipment schedules may support an initial review. Where measured demand is needed, the assessment scope can include load logging.

What can I do with the findings?

The agreed report can support decisions about expansion, budgeting, a tenant change or further design. If an upgrade is required, explore our connection and supply-upgrade support and reticulation design service.
