Stage three load-shedding implemented
Eskom has implemented stage three load-shedding country wide.

ESKOM and eThekwini Municipality have implemented stage three load-shedding.
This means each block will be load-shedding twice today. At this stage it is unclear whether there will be stage three load-shedding throughout the weekend.
Visit Eskom’s website or eThekwini Municipality’s website to find out what stage of load-shedding is active and if load-shedding has been activated. For the full load-shedding schedule, click here.
