poweralert stage 2.....

[Brian_G]

Depends how much maintenance is still needed, have to make the vote deadline of *ending LS.




(* - ending" is a multiple-meaning word)

 

[ToxicBunny]

So looks like we are finally coming out of the LS crisis?

Or will something break just now?

They'll have fscked up the other 3 units at Kusile in short order...

Anybody heard of the Unit Two Turbine Hall fire at Chernobyl which happened on October 11, 1991?

Poor workplace maintenance etc set the stage for that to happen.

*looks pointedly at Eskom*

Makes no sense, should suspend LS after 10pm and should be stage 1 from 4 to 10 tomorrow night. I mean this is pointless

 

[Lupus]

Please explain why shedding is needed??

Only makes sense if you know they are lying.

 

[Lupus]

Should be stage 1 at most tonight, but we will see, the numbers actually look really good, in the past this would mean no shedding, but knowing Eskdom we'll still have it tonight.

 

[Brian_G]

but knowing Eskdom we'll still have it tonight.

Or they'll announce it too late for many to benefit.

You can't just yank the loadshedding from the people, we have built our whole lives around this thing. Weaning us off bit by bit is the best way.

Eskom don't want your money.

Ends up 100 hours for us, if they cancel Mon. night in the usual fashion we could reach 124 hours.

My longest was last week, 121 hours between 2am Thursday morning to 4am Tuesday Morning, sadly there is planned maintenance once again for my area on Monday from 8am to 4pm, then LS at 6pm. So we will only have 83 hours.
