poweralert stage 2.....

[Nom Chompsky]

Eskom se Push says Wed at 4am (Zone 11 CoCT), but that may not be too disruptive.

If Steenbras is working optimally we may skip 2 stages between 5am and 4pm (CoCT still to confirm).

Ah yeah . I was thinking of the ones which affect me. I'm in deep sleep at 4am.

If I forget to unplug my desktop PC and smart TV the night before, they make a helluva racket at 4am in the morning, and mess up my sleep cycle...

But it only comes back at 6??

Think he meant 2 to 4am, Gordon first meant the later one.

I notice that Eskom put this "reply" underneath the announcement. Pure comedy.

I mean compared to 2022 where we couldn't even do that, it was a small win... Stupid one, but a small one

Chaos on this side of the Jo'burg zoo - we were turned off just now according to what seems to be our "old" block's schedule. Lovely start CP :-/

Edit: Was at least correct as far as stages go.

Here is Dec 2022

Here is Dec 2023

Considering that the last 2 weeks of December 2023 were heavy maintenance and a big increase in unplanned, this just shows if they'd kept it up we'd actually have hit 57 to 59% EAF for Dec but anyway

Chaos on this side of the Jo'burg zoo - we were turned off just now according to what seems to be our "old" block's schedule, and even that based on S3, not S2. Lovely start CP :-/

At 10am?

 

[Brian_G]

At 10am?

No, was 8-10am

 

[Lupus]

No, was 8-10am

You went off at 8 to 10? What is the area? Or block remember blocks have changed again

That's the point, it's like our block didn't change back, or CP's agent doesn't know about the change.

Yesterday - block 15
Today - block 9
behaviour - block 15
area: Moutainview, Jo'burg

They refuse to make it available online as well, we refuse to rely on smartphones................... tough luck, our struggle goes on, lol

Why does anyone still bother with anything else. ESP or Load Shedding Notifier...

Your protest for whatever reason is only make life difficult for yourself...
