Loadshedding escalates to Stage 4

Eskom implemented a higher stage of load-shedding at short notice this morning.

Eskom announced this morning that loadshedding has been ramped up to stage 4 since 5.30am.

The power utility said this was due to five generators that have broken down at five power stations overnight.

According to Eskom a full statement will be issued this afternoon.

Stanger Nothern Grid and Ballito Southern Grid are affected at the same times:

Tuesday and Wednesday

  • 5am – 7.30am
  • 1pm – 3.30pm
  • 9pm – 11.30pm
