I don't see what the point of these schedules are because they never stick to them.

They always have for the areas I've lived. If it does go off it happens during the listed times.

Does anyone know what "ESKOM" indicates on those schedules?

Also noticed that. Are they exempt from load shedding?

Perhaps areas served directly by Eskom. Then they might have a separate schedule you get from Eskom.

in Germiston the loadshedding times change by 2 hours so you'd have no electricity for instance between midnight and 2:00am on monday, 2:00 and 4:00am on tuesday, 4:00 and 6:00am on wednesday and so on. you're lucky it's during the day. some poor sods will have theirs switched off 3 times a week between 18:00 and 20:30 and others between 20:00 and 22:30. how stupid is that scheduling?
