JOHANNESBURG - Eskom is ramping up rolling power cuts to Stage 3 until 4pm on Tuesday.
Stage 5 will then be implemented on Tuesday night until 5am on Wednesday.
The power utility blames breakdowns and a delay in returning some generating units to service.
It adds that the return to normalcy after the Easter weekend break may result in more frequent power cuts at short notice.
