Stage 4 load-shedding will be implemented from midday on Sunday until 5am on Monday.

Load-shedding will then vary between stages 4 and 3 until Wednesday morning. 

Stage 4 load-shedding will be implemented from 12 noon on Sunday until 5am on Monday. Stage 3 load-shedding will be implemented from 5am on Monday until 4pm, thereafter increasing to stage 4 until 5am on Tuesday morning.

“Stage 3 load-shedding will be implemented from 5am on Tuesday until 4pm, thereafter increasing to stage 4 until 5am on Wednesday morning,” said the power utility.

“The higher load-shedding stages are required to help build up the emergency generation reserves during the week,” it added.
