Power Off in Parts of the City due to Stormy Weather

23 June 2009
The stormy weather, especially the gale force wind, has taken its toll on the City's electricity networks.

The electricity supply has been interrupted to parts of these suburbs:

Pinelands
Rondebosch
Plumstead
Observatory
Constantia
Tamboerskloof
Maitland
Paarden Eiland
Parow Valley

All available repair crews from City Electricity Services are out in the field and are striving to restore the power supply as soon as possible.

NB: If you have reported the power being off to the Electricity Call Centre on 0800 220 440 then PLEASE do not keep calling to enquire on progress, as this overloads the lines.
