Eskom implements stage one load shedding
Date: Nov 19, 2018
Stage one rotational load shedding was implemented at 2.15pm on Sunday afternoon and is likely to continue until 10pm on Sunday night “to preserve emergency resources”, state-owned power utility Eskom said.
“Customers are reminded to treat all electrical points as live during load shedding,” Eskom said in a statement.
“Customers are advised to keep checking their load shedding schedules on the Eskom and their municipal website and to plan on the assumption that load shedding will take place.
“We continue to appeal to residents and businesses to use electricity sparingly during this period. Please switch off geysers as well as all non-essential lighting and electricity appliances to assist in reducing demand,” Eskom said.
