Late last night a electricity station caught fire in Centurion. This caused massive issues at the National Operators Center. All the damaged parts at the burnt station were replaced but some of the Sub-stations were damaged due to the surge.

All these sub-station are not repaired yet.

So what does this mean?

Internet Connectivity problems for you. Most service providers are affected.

Hopefully things will be back to normal tomorrow.

I wonder how much money Centurion mall will loose with this incident if it's not fixed tomorrow.
 
i heard it will take 3 days according to a friend who lives there.
 
really bad... guess these guys have their hands full trying repair all this
 
I geuss they have, our offices have power again, and it was one of the last area's where they restored power to.
If they actually fixed the issue so that it won't happen again, or they just got it working again I don't know.
