What this business's certifications actually buy you
This listing states: ECA. Here is what each of those means in practice, and what it does not cover.
Electrical Contractors Association (ECA)
Issued by ECA South AfricaProfessional body representing qualified electrical contractors. Members must meet strict standards.
What ECA covers and what it does notCertifications are self-declared on unclaimed listings and are not independently audited by SolarZA. Ask for the certificate number and check it with the issuing body before you sign anything.
What to ask African Power Tech before you sign
These questions are generated from what this specific listing does and does not tell us. They are not accusations - a gap in a directory record usually means nobody has filled it in yet - but they are the gaps you should close yourself.
- 1The listed certifications do not mention a Certificate of Compliance. A COC is a legal requirement for the electrical work, not an optional extra, so confirm in writing that one will be issued and registered in your name.
- 2Warranty terms are not stated. Ask for three separately: the panel performance warranty, the inverter warranty, and the workmanship warranty on the installation itself. The third is the one that fails first and the one most installers do not put in writing.
- 3Trading history is not published here. Ask how long the business has traded under its current registration, not the owner's years in the industry. A twenty-year electrician can still be running a two-month-old company, and your workmanship warranty is only as durable as the entity behind it.
What solar is worth at this location
Hazyview, Mbombela averages 5.2 kWh/m²/day across the year, dropping to 4.3 in June. On those figures a 5 kW array with a 5 kWh battery - the most commonly quoted household system in South Africa - generates roughly 16.8 kWh on an average winter day, 23.0 kWh in summer, and about 7 402 kWh a year. The Lowveld has the flattest seasonal curve on this list - December barely beats June - which makes sizing unusually predictable. The trade-off is summer humidity and cloud that cap the peak, so Mbombela never sees the high summer yields of the Highveld despite being further north.

This listing has not been claimed by African Power Tech. It was compiled from public business records and the company's own published material, then checked for internal consistency. We publish it because an incomplete listing that says so is more useful than no listing at all, but treat every field as unverified until the business confirms it.
Not on file for this business: warranties, years in business. Those are gaps in our record, not necessarily gaps in the business.
Ratings and review counts shown are the public Google figures at the time of our last refresh and will drift. Something wrong here? Claim the listing or tell us and we will correct it.
