Stage 6 load-shedding from 16:00 as maintenance backlog could take ‘weeks to clear’

Stage 6 load shedding will kick in again from 16:00 until 22:00 on Wednesday evening, Eskom said in a statement. This is despite the fact that striking employees have started returning to work. Stage 4 loadshedding will be implemented from 22:00 until midnight, and then reduced to Stage 2 until 05:00 on Thursday morning. From 05:00 until 00:00 on Thursday loadshedding will be at Stage 4.
