Tips:
-
Where possible, please switch off appliances at the wall socket ahead of maintenance to reduce the risk of damage caused by power surges.
-
The supply could be restored at any time, therefore residents should remember to treat all electrical installations as live for the full duration of the interruption.
- Planned maintenance takes place during Eskom’s loadshedding.
