@JHBWater We didn't have any water yesterday in Craigavon and for some reason no water again today, with no notification or any updates whatsoever, yet you send us notification of a planned outage on 7 November. Please be so kind to inform us what the status is.

[Jacques Breytenbach @JacquesBreyten5]

@JHBWater Please provide an urgent update on the Craigavon water outage, this is day 3 without water.

[Jacques Breytenbach @JacquesBreyten5]

@Eskom_SA You've been sending us the load limiting notifications again for since Monday this week after returning to Stage 4 and below, yet you are still loadshedding us in Craigavon/Fourways every day this week instead of limiting our power usage to 10A - please advise.

[Jacques Breytenbach @JacquesBreyten5]

@PeterQwerty11 @Eskom_SA Power consumption is measured in Watts. At 10A you therefore will have around 2200W of max power available to utilise, which is basically one appliance in use like boiling a kettle. Should you consume more than the load limit of 10A, your power will be cut for the duration of LS

@PeterQwerty11 @Eskom_SA Do you stay in Fourways and have a prepaid smart meter?

[Jacques Breytenbach @JacquesBreyten5]

@Eskom_SA Thank you Eskom, the load limiting pilot in Fourways seems to be working fine so far, as I haven't had any power outage during loadshedding sessions since last Friday. By ensuring that I don't utilise more than 10A at any time by using appliances smartly, this is the way to go 👍🏻

[Jacques Breytenbach @JacquesBreyten5]

@PeterQwerty11 @Eskom_SA Yes, my power has been on since last Friday, my power was only reduced to 10A instead of the normal full 60A, but never went off.

[Jacques Breytenbach @JacquesBreyten5]

@Eskom_SA WTF is wrong with you people, can't you at least have the decency to alert us in advance and not when you switch the power off so we can plan ahead for supper!!!
