Eskom alerts residents of a high risk of load-shedding
JOHANNESBURG – Eskom says that the power system is currently under a lot of strain which increases the risk of load-shedding.
Eskom has urged customers to use electricity sparingly and switch off all non-essential appliances as this will help reduce the power in the national grid.
Although Eskom did not implement load-shedding yesterday, 11 March, the power utility has said that the risk of load-shedding till remains high for today. They added, however, that load-shedding will only be implemented if absolutely necessary.
