The power utility says further breakdowns at power stations necessitated the increase in power cuts.
They're also to conserve limited diesel stocks and to allow for dam levels in the pumped storage schemes to be replenished.
Further breakdowns require the implementation of Stage 4 loadshedding with immediate effect until 05:00 on Monday morning.
