Metro at work to restore power

Several suburbs in the east of Pretoria were affected by the power outage.

Technicians from the Tshwane metro were hard at work to restore power to several suburbs following a sub-station trip at Wapadrand on Saturday morning.

“No estimated time of repair is currently available, but technicians are working hard on it,” Tshwane metro spokesperson Selby Bokaba said.

This after a 132KV trip was reported at one of the metro’s sub-stations.

“Technicians are still busy repairing and replacing burnt components,” a tweet from the metro read.

Suburbs which were said to be affected by the power outage included Equestria, Wapadrand, Faerie Glen and Silver Lakes.
