Eskom implements load reduction  | News Article

Eskom has announced that the Lejweleputswa district in the Free State will experience load reduction to avoid network overload and damage to the infrastructure located in high-density areas.

The implementation of load reduction will start tomorrow (29 December) between 06:00-09:00.

Load reduction is to be implemented in certain parts of Maditshakane, within the Lejweleputswa district.

Eskom customers are encouraged to refrain from logging a fault during the allocated load reduction period.

Electricity users have also been warmed to treat all installations as live and dangerous.

Day-to-day updates will be issued to the media and on Eskom’s numerous social media platforms.
