For over 40 years, Current Connections has been the trusted name in electrical contracting across South Africa. We're a family business that treats every project — big or small — with the same commitment to quality.
Founder
With over four decades in the electrical and utility management industry, Dave has been helping South African homes and businesses since the early 1980s. His expertise in electrical infrastructure, utility management and complex tariff structures has shaped the way Current Connections approaches every project — practical, honest and engineered to last.
Dave's commitment to honest advice and quality workmanship has been the foundation of the business since day one. He built Current Connections on a simple rule that still guides the team: tell the client what they need, do the job properly, and stand behind it. It's the reason so many of our clients have been with us for decades.
These days Dave is less visible on site, but he remains involved in the background — advising on complex metering and utility projects, guiding the team, and keeping an eye on the standard of every job that leaves the workshop.
Current Connections was built on a foundation of trust, integrity, and an uncompromising commitment to quality workmanship. For more than four decades, we have served clients across South Africa as a family-owned electrical contracting business, earning our reputation one satisfied customer at a time.
Starting with a commitment to doing the job right, treating people fairly, and never cutting corners, our team has grown into a group of 15+ qualified professionals serving thousands of residential, commercial, and industrial clients. We're based in Randburg, Johannesburg, and we service clients across the country. We've adapted to changing technology — from basic electrical installations to sophisticated solar backup systems and smart metering — without ever compromising on the values that define us.
Today, Current Connections is recognised as one of South Africa's most trusted electrical contractors. We're proud of the reputation we've built and grateful to the clients who have trusted us with their electrical needs — many of whom have been with us for decades.
How we actually work is simple: we inspect, we test, and we tell you the truth about what your installation needs — even when the truth is that you don't need us yet. We're registered with the Department of Employment and Labour, we carry full public liability insurance, and every job is done to SANS 10142 and issued with a Certificate of Compliance where one is required. We're Herholdt's Premium Partners, ECA (SA) members and Recharge accredited installers, which means the equipment we specify is backed by the people who make it.
Every job, regardless of size, receives the same attention to detail and commitment to excellence.
We tell you what you need, not what we want to sell. Our reputation depends on your trust.
Full compliance with SANS 10142 and OHSA. We never compromise on safety standards.
