BRITS POS – GROENKLOOF - Services must be paid for, claims Eskom, but that is not true for residents in the Groenkloof area, next to Majakaneng.
According to owners, this issue has been with Eskom for years, without any actions/solutions and enough is now enough.
Eskom reported the primary cause of the outages to Majakaneng is overloading of the local electricity network, which has necessitated the implementation of load reduction measures to prevent system failure.
