#LoadShedding likely today | News Article

Eskom has warned that the power system remains constrained today, despite several units being returned to service this morning.


Customers are advised to keep checking their load shedding schedules on the Eskom and their municipal website, and plan on the assumption that load shedding will take place.

The power utility said in a statement that the risk for load shedding during the course of today remains high due to a shortage of capacity from the effects of the recent industrial action and will remain so in the coming week. 

They encourage residents and businesses to continue using electricity sparingly.

"Please switch off geysers during the day especially during peak periods (07:00 to 10:00 and 18:00 to 21:00) as well as all non-essential lighting and electricity appliances to assist in reducing demand.  Remember to treat all electrical points as live during a power outage."
