Find out when and how long your suburb will be affected by Eskom's load shedding measures.
Eskom has announced on 6 March that it will have to resort to the same extreme load-shedding measures last seen in 2008, owing to the large volumes of rain leaving their coal stocks wet.

“We ask all our customers to use electricity sparingly by switching off non-essential appliances and equipment during peak hours,” says Louis Pieterse, City Power’s Director of Engineering Operations.
Customers are urged to switch off appliances and equipment during outages to prevent damage from power surges.
Eskom also indicated that the aim is for all users to save at least 10 per cent electricity, saying that even this might not be enough to prevent continued load shedding.
Vandag is Donderdag en die elektrisiteit is af al vanaf 10h40 !!!!!!
Off since just past 10 and only came on 16:01
Today is Wednesday and it was off for just over 5 hours not 4. So are we going to be left in the dark tomorrow as well?
Dit is n pot strond ! Laat die regering ons sponsor met son panneele en ligte en de he’ll met ESKOM hulle trek groot salarise elke maand en kannie die werk doen nie as die kak die fan slaan bedank hulle problem solved !!
Really now 6pm – 10pm why don’t the shut down the presidents electricity during all the load shedding time schedule or @ least sponsor us with solar geysers and generators we are paying for the services they can F off this country is going to the dogs stop supplying other countries with electricity
Our locations are living on free electricity,eskom can’t control it they even refused the pre-paid meters we are paying for their electricity what a great country we live in
Eskom is n joke hulle weet nie eers waarvan hulle praat nie. Ek werk daagliks met kragbesparings toerusting vir 3 fase krag en ekt met n paar elektriese ingeneers gepraat hulle reken almal as took n paar van my ander kliente dat die steenkool eintlik better brand as dit nat is dus veronderstel om nie n probleem te wees nie meskien moet hulle prioriteite eers reg kry en eers omsien na ons land se elektriese navraag voor hulle die buite land verskaf. En ook better instandhouding van hulle krag stasies ens sal ook baie van hulle kopsere verminder. Enige navraag oor kragbesparing toerusting op 3 fase krag, generators, solar stelsels of power factor correction kontak ons gerus op 0112495000
Typical, F’in idiots are quick to supply other country’s with power but can’t maintain our electricity! They’re also quick to cut your electricity off if not paid, increasing the tariffs too, but can’t supply electricity? Typical shit heads!!
Hulle is slimmer as wat ons dink, hoekom gebeur dit nou? Dit is daai tyd van die jaar, hulle soek hulle increases. en moet een of ander storie vir die dom regering spin om hulle tariewe te verhoog. Hoekom gaan hulle nie net voort nie, dit is mos n dictatorship, hulle kan doen wat hulle wil. Grense is so te se oop en hordes stroom in en gebruik krag onwettig, maar dit is die ANC se stem krag om die gemors van Zimbabwe te gebruik.
This is a load of crap.
Our country’s infrastructure is a joke.
firstly, for example, a country like England has rain for approximately 70^% of the year and never has these kinds of set backs.
Secondly, you never hear of load shedding in areas such as Soweto or Alexander, because the government is scared of the uproar it will create. Yet these are the areas where it is known that people refrain from paying electricity.
Ok, so yesterday was Thursday and this was not on the list for being cut.
Is the power going down today too? Do you per chance have a new schedule?
