Pretorians are set to be hit by two-hour intervals of load shedding from morning till 21:30 on Friday.

The power utility,  Eskom, has announced load-shedding stage 2 [would commence] from 09:00 until 21:30.

“As a result of a shortage of capacity due to a number of generating units still out of service due to breakdowns, Eskom will be implementing Stage 1 rotational load shedding from 09:00 and this is likely to continue until 21:30,” Eskom said.

“Our maintenance teams continue to work hard to bring the units back to service.”

Customers are reminded to treat all electrical points as live during load shedding.
