You had loadshedding in the morning hours? Suspect it was a technical fault (or cable theft), like we had Wednesday evening here.

Stage 2 in my world would be 2pm to 630pm today and tomorrow. Not the worst time of day.

Agreed - it ended at 2230 last night. We're going to be seeing a lot of technical faults with all the planned outages. :eek:

Source?

Twitter Eskom Media Desk doesn't carry the message, although it seems somewhat inevitable following on from a week of daily load shedding and demand rising resulting from cold weather across the country.

That said, I need to power down ahead of the KWAAA! coming from 17h00 to 18h30. Block 8B in City Power, Joburg.

Sad times :(
