We also skipped last night but went off this morning from 4 to 5. Looks as if CP is playing musical switches...

Odd the only time grid dropped on my side was yesterday's 2.5 hours fault.
I love having monitoring now :)
 
I am starting to doubt these no load shedding.
Yesterday we were not supposed to have load shedding. Yet the first time in months we had a sudden trip and was of for 2 hours before the "trip" was fixed. This was not is a load shedding time slot where to maybe could have made a mistake.
Then last night the area next to us also had a trip. Yes you guessed it 2 hours "trip"
This morning at kids sport at another school out our areas, power is off. Don't know the time it took to "repair" left before it was back on.

Yesterday was still load shedding, but you're being overly suspicious just sounds like your area has old infrastructure.

I am talking 3 different areas/grids that suddenly had "trips" in the last 24hours.
Also our "trip" yesterday was the first time ever the councilor said its an Eskom problem and not a CoT problem.
 
We should all be suspicious all the time, there's certainly very little above-board in the subject of our national power supply.

Yeah what part of welcome to SA didn't you get?
Wow a power outage is not load shedding hidden or otherwise its a fault

Serious? apparently power is always off in the whole of Joburg, you and I must be the only one who don't have unexpected trips and power failures.

But since you have now moved on to the other side, I am the only man standing.

He's in Tshwane of all places so it's the whole of Gauteng

You just said you have a very consistent power supply, why do you tin you are suddenly having disguised load shedding now if we've had loadshedding since 2008? Surely this "loadshedding" should be a normal occurence for you?

I am sure deep down you can see that your conspiracy theory is a non starter, find something else, you have water?
