AT YOUR PROPERTY
Adding a workshop or extending the premises?
Tell Wesslink about the intended equipment before requesting surge protection in Krugersdorp. A new workshop, office or extension may change the boards and circuits that need assessment, even if the original building stays in use.
For a Krugersdorp building project, send the proposed electrical layout and make clear what is existing, what is new and what still awaits approval. Coordinate the protection work with the project electrician before equipment positions and board space are finalised.
THE WORK TO DISCUSS
Coordinate protection with the electrical project
The equipment schedule is more useful than choosing a device before the installation is designed.
02
An extension to an occupied building
Identify the areas that must stay operational. Agree how access and any necessary interruption will be arranged during the project.
Commercial electrical services ↗03
An existing premises upgrade
Send the board and device records you have. Ask for the condition of the existing installation to be assessed before committing to a replacement-only quote.

UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE
Surge protection, lightning and the right SPD
A surge protective device limits transient overvoltage and diverts surge energy. It helps reduce risk; it does not make equipment immune to every event or voltage disturbance.
Surge protection
SPDs are selected and coordinated for the supply, earthing, exposure, boards and equipment. Different Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 roles may be relevant.
Lightning protection
A structural lightning-protection system has a different role. Direct strikes, induced lightning, utility switching and internally generated transients must not be treated as one diagnosis.
Supply problems
A surge should not be diagnosed remotely. Transformers and network switching can create transient conditions, but protection cannot be promised against every voltage disturbance.
Explore SPD types, coordination and technical references
There is no universal number of surge protectors for every property. Map the incoming supply, earthing and exposure; trace main and downstream boards, cable distances and critical loads; include relevant power, data and control lines; then coordinate the selected device roles.
Manufacturer guidance should be applied to the specific installation.
CHECK BEFORE YOU NEED TO CLAIM
Does your insurance cover power-surge damage?
Your insurer’s requirements matter. Check your current policy schedule, surge-cover benefits, limits, excesses, exclusions and any protection requirements with your insurer or broker.
Installing an SPD does not automatically secure a payout. Equally, the absence of a particular device does not establish automatic rejection under every policy. Claim treatment also depends on the actual cause.
Keep incident photographs, equipment details, installation records, assessments and repair evidence. Record previous damage as evidence rather than assuming a cause.

Send your exact address, property type and equipment concerns to request a quotation. Confirm access and current availability when booking.
Should I choose a surge protector before ordering workshop equipment?
Start with the equipment specifications and the intended installation. Wesslink can assess the relevant boards and discuss suitable protection as part of the electrical work.
Does the electrical quote cover building-plan approval?
Ask the quotation to state its electrical work clearly. Keep building-plan and project approvals with the owner and responsible project professionals; they are separate from selecting and installing surge protection.
What should I keep after surge damages in Krugersdorp?
Retain the equipment repair findings, installation records and dates of the failures. Include recent additions or alterations when asking Wesslink to assess the electrical installation.
What does an SPD do?
A surge protective device limits transient overvoltage and diverts surge energy. It reduces risk but does not make equipment immune to every event or voltage disturbance.
Is surge protection the same as lightning protection?
No. Coordinated SPDs and a structural lightning-protection system have different roles. Direct strikes, induced lightning, utility switching and internally generated transients are not interchangeable.
Can the existing building stay occupied during the project?
Explain the occupation and equipment that must remain available. The project team and Wesslink can discuss the access and interruption arrangements needed for the agreed work.
Does an SPD guarantee an insurance claim will be paid?
No. Policy treatment depends on the insurer, plan, schedule, limits, excesses, optional benefits, exclusions and actual cause. Check current policy wording and preserve incident, installation and repair evidence.
