The planned power cuts will resume with stage 3 from 16:00 on Wednesday until 5:00 on Thursday.


The battling power utility says various load shedding stages will be implemented until Sunday.


Spokesperson Menzi Mngomezulu said over the past 24 hours, a generating unit at Arnot, Camden and Lethabo power stations was returned to service. 


"In the same period, a generating unit at Kriel and Tutuka power stations was taken offline for repairs. The delay in returning to service two generating units at Kendal and a generating unit at Tutaka power stations are contributing to the current capacity constraints".
