Protecting South African installations since 1983
Four decades of surge-protection engineering, real stock in Gauteng, and a team that picks up the phone. EBB South Africa is the locally-run distributor of the EU-manufactured EBB protection range — NRCS LOA certified and B-BBEE Level 2.
Our story
Built on protection, not promises
EBB began in 1983 supplying overvoltage protection to European industrial installations from its factory in Logatec, Slovenia. The South African operation brings that same engineering rigour to local conditions — high lightning density, an ageing grid, load-shedding switching events and a fast-growing solar base.
We don’t drop-ship a catalogue. We hold real stock in Kempton Park, certify the range to NRCS and SANS, and back specifiers and wholesalers with people who understand what an SPD actually has to survive on a Highveld summer afternoon.
