City Power(less)

Thursday night midnight, the Beyers Naude substation in Randpark Ridge failed due to cable theft. It was fixed and power restored 24hrs later. Saturday midnight the electric box on Oudoring/Karee blew up. A repeat of what happened 3 months ago. The repair team started work at 15:00 on Sunday - one of them appeared drunk or drugged. Now there is confusion in the repair and we are still waiting for electricity. City Power(less) seems incapable of fixing this mess and we are stuck with melting frozen goods, cold showers and freezing nights while we pay record prices for electricity we don’t have!
