Very important please:

ONLY USE ESSENTIAL APPLIANCES WHEN POWER IS RESTORED

Consumers are reminded to use electricity sparingly especially when power returns after load-shedding. This will reduce the risk of overload tripping on the network. Consumers are requested to not switch on appliances such as stoves and kettles for at least 30 minutes after load-shedding.
