Struggling Eskom has ramped-up load-shedding to Stage 4.
In a tweet on Tuesday evening, the power utility said: “A generation unit each at Kendal and Lethabo power stations have just tripped.
“This necessitates the immediate escalation of load-shedding to Stage 4 at 18:00.”
Stage 4 load-shedding will continue to be implemented until 05:00 on Thursday morning and will then be reduced to Stage 3 until 05:00 on Saturday morning, Eskom said.
