Established in Cape Town on November 22, 1945, Faradays Electrical started as a small shop selling radios and spare parts. Michael Hurwitz joined in 1953, leading to a name change and expansion into electrical engineering. In 2005, we transitioned to a private company (PTY) Ltd, enabling long-term employees to become shareholders and directors. Allan Hurwitz, Michael’s son, joined in 1974 and took over in 1983. Under his leadership, we expanded nationwide, opening branches in Johannesburg and Durban—now led by Managing Director Jaun Hoffmann—and appointing representatives in the Eastern Cape and Mossel Bay. We have proudly served the Pick n Pay Group since its inception, specializing in point-of-sale and computer installations, as well as electrical and data solutions for store refurbishments and new developments nationwide.

Lighting is often underestimated, yet it has a direct impact on productivity, safety, and energy efficiency. The right lighting design — combined with proper maintenance — supports operational efficiency while reducing long-term costs. Electrical planning doesn’t stop at installation; performance over time matters just as much.

Strong electrical foundations power strong operations.

Electrical planning at HV and LV level plays a critical role in how commercial and industrial facilities operate. Poor planning can lead to inefficiencies, compliance issues, and costly disruptions down the line. At Faradays, we approach HV and LV installations with long-term performance, safety, and scalability in mind — ensuring infrastructure supports the business, not limits it.

Are you only seeing 10% of your electrical risk? 🧊⚡

The cost of a reactive repair—the part you see—is usually just the tip of the iceberg. What lies beneath are the hidden costs that can sink a business: lost revenue, operational downtime, and compromised safety.

Our latest blog dives deep into Preventative vs. Reactive Maintenance, exploring:
✅ Why "saving money" on maintenance actually costs you thousands.
✅ The hidden risks in high-stakes environments like petrol stations and retail centres.
✅ How to move from constant firefighting to a proactive, high-performance strategy.

Stop waiting for the spark. Start building a resilient foundation.

In fuel retail, there is zero margin for electrical error. ⛽⚡
