No Load Shedding Only rolling blackouts

And? Obviously you live in a unique area never allowed to be affected by load shedding or other blackouts. Not applicable to this discussion.

I couldn't care less - still fun rubbing your nose in it.

Have to give credit where it's due and the PE electricity dept certainly deserve it for working into the wee hours to fix a local fault last Friday.

Power went off around 10:00 on Friday and was restored at 02:00 on Saturday - I really thought they'd packed in for the day Friday evening as there had been a couple of false starts and then nothing but they were obviously still hard at work

Durban Electricity have done similar recently(ish)...

Had load shedding that finished at 10pm... the lil fekkers stole the cables inside the street distribution unit during loadshedding. 30 minutes after loadshedding finished, the guys were there and worked until around 3am replacing all the cables...

If you are part of 2A(old 8B) you'd know what I'm talking about...

If you're fed by the Montgomery Park substation, that's probably why. It's been buggered since it burst into flames for the first time, what, almost a year ago.

Blame CoJ, not Eskom.

Did you get a model C school education or something else?

Not sure what my education has got to do with anything or need to be mentioned on asking others experiences relating to power outages.
