Loadshedding moves to stage 2, from stage 1 daytime cuts

Eskom said on Tuesday the loss of three generation units overnight means loadshedding will be increased to stage 2.

This is in effect from 5am until 4pm.

The enforced power cuts have been at stage 1 until 4pm, when stage 3 loadshedding kicked in for the evening cycle.

Eskom said it would provide an update on Tuesday afternoon.
