Repairs and installations

  • City or suburb: Plettenberg Bay
  • Areas in need of repair or installation: DB box or circuit breaker panel, Socket outlets

Hi there My domestic worker has recently got electricity to her home in Bossiesgif (next to the industrial area). We fought with the municipality to get it installed but now I realise she has a meter but she is running an extension from her meter to her room and I am concerned she may not have a proper DB board and plug set up. I would hate for her power to short circuit or a fire to start. I'd like to get a ready board with 4 plugs and a light installed for her. Something like the attached. Would you be able to assist with setting this up in an informal settlement? Thanks for your help!
