Stage 2 load shedding announced from 11am today till 5am Monday

[Lupus]

I'm trying to utilize all potential angles of the sun, I lose production late afternoon when the one side of my house is pelted with the rays.

Do you have any actual roof left . For me the first biggest step is to get the council to chop the bloody pines down, they would drop my production down a lot as well.

Pylon Tech Lithium Ion 3.5 Kw each....

Yeah it's a lot though, I mean if you can why not.

I have one side that can fit 12 panels left.

Hi, Jack.

Anyone know a good gas geyser installer in the East?

Bi, Jack.

I have one side that can fit 12 panels left.

I can still fit a bit more on my carport (red) and then still have my whole NE facing roof (blue (. You can't see the panels from the road as its all on my carport and only 5° tilt.

Currently have 34 x 305w panels on my carport.

Why would they supply that? Surely most people after 2 years of working from home should've been prepared.

They said they would give me one and last job was mostly in office.

 

[Priapus]

I forgot to ask the new company for a UPS. Yesterday I thought, surely there won't be loadshedding tomorrow.....

So this is your fault.

Slow clap.

Should ask them where it is

Wow that is huge, and I was looking at most 10 maybe 12.

12 will be just fine. I have 12 x 410w panels. Peak generation is 4300w on a good day. Plenty go power there.

Yup but I will need to get the trees cut

When you use JHB ZOO AND PTA ZOO as an employment agency for government and government departments that's what happens

Just make sure you're not cutting trees outside your property; that could lead to a fine from the city.

I know :-( that is my issue.

Also hearing that quite a few units came back this morning from Eskom sigh.

This is old now; and proven not to be the case. Wish people would stop with this kak.

People won't, they seem to lock on to something and stick with it. Listening to the briefing it's basically things that have been broken for almost a year that still haven't come back.

It's not Power Cut's or Load Sheading. That sounds way too soft for the damage this causes our economy. It's Nationwide Rolling Blackouts!!

No it's loadshedding... A rolling blackout would be when the system actually goes down. Loadshedding isn't something invented by Eskom, it's an actual term used when you need to make sure the grid doesn't blackout.
A rolling blackout would be as the grid shuts down it rolls through the country and doesn't come back up.
