SpazaBoX Electrical Package — SANS 10142-1
SPZ-EL-SS-005
1 · Identity & duty
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Box type | SPZ-EL-MS-E — ButcheryBoX (4.5 m) |
| Daily energy demand (modelled) | 20.6 kWh/day at 90% soc-cycle discipline |
| Circuits | Cold room compressor · Mincer + band saw · Display fridges · Counter + scale · Lighting + security |
2 · Distribution board schedule
| Breaker | Poles | Circuit |
|---|---|---|
| 50 A | 2P | Main incomer |
| 20 A | 1P | Cold room |
| 16 A | 1P | Mincer + saw |
| 16 A | 1P | Display fridges |
| 10 A | 1P | Scale + lighting |
3 · Autonomy plant — Rev A (as quoted) vs Rev B (autonomy-corrected)
| Plant | Rev A | Rev B (required) | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| PV array | 5 kWp | 7.4 kWp | 2.4 kWp |
| Battery bank (LiFePO4) | 10 kWh | 15 kWh | 5.0 kWh |
| Inverter (hybrid) | 8 kVA | 12 kVA | 4.0 kVA |
| Generator auto-start | no | yes | added |
UPGRADE REQUIRED — SPZ-EL-MS-E. Cold-chain must never brown-out — Rev B adds compressor soft-start + 50% battery.
4 · Autonomy rule (grid-independence first)
Every SpazaBoX must trade through a 48-hour grid outage with zero brown-out on cold chain and POS. Grid/generator input is charge-only — the autonomy bus is inverter-first. Compliance: SANS 10142-1 (SA wiring code), CoC per registered electrician before energising any unit.
