Thank you for participating in the competition. Congrats guys on your prize. We will be in touch shortly to arrange for you to get your R250 prize money.

Be very careful when using just any electrician or buying wire from just any shop. There is copper coated tin cable being sold in East London as SANS approved for very cheap. This cable is illegal and will void your Certificate of compliance if installed, not to mention your insurance can void claims if this cable is used. This cable is weak and breaks very easily which can cause surges, short circuits and even fire. You have the right to ask your electrician for proof of purchase from an approved electrical wholesaler like ARB, Voltex, Transform or ADZ. These are just some of the approved suppliers. If you are not sure or your electrician refuses to prove who their suppliers are then you can always contact the ECA and they will give you the information that you need. Don't use electricians that can't give a certificate of compliance.

New load shedding stages for South Africa – what you need to know

The National Rationalised Specifications (NRS) Association management committee chairperson, Vally Padayachee, says it is highly unlikely that South Africa will ever reach stage 16 load shedding, but the new stages approved by energy regulator Nersa mean that there is now a plan if we ever do.

Nersa approved and published the third edition of the NRS 048-9 Code of Practice at the start of April, introducing some changes to the load shedding structure in the country – the most notable of which is the extension of load shedding stages to stage 16.

The new load shedding structure splits up the full load (minus the 20% critical load) into load shedding blocks, with stage 16 being the new maximum where, effectively, power will be out for a full 32-hour cycle.

In a briefing this week explaining the new edition of the code, Padayachee said the document would ensure that South Africa’s systems operators—at Eskom and at the municipal level—have a plan for emergency situations.

He said that, prior to the new code, operators only had measures to assist them up to stage 8.

“If we went into a situation beyond stage 8, people in the operations centres would have gone into ’emergency and contingency mode’ to manage the required load shedding stages.

“In an emergency situation beyond stage 8—which we cannot rule out, notwithstanding Eskom’s current good performance—it becomes a bit more complex because you have less electricity load to ‘play’ with,” he said.

“Even though these people (system operators) are very competent, the propensity to make errors in an emergency situation increases.”

With the new load-shedding stages, South Africa has now “significantly mitigated the propensity of human error in people working in Eskom operation and municipal operation centres”, he said.

While the move from stage 8 to stage 16 is unlikely, the new stages can be used or relied on to assist in an emergency situation.

Padayachee said that since the code has been approved and published, it is now legally mandated.

The new stages are as follows:

Stage Load shedding Load curtailment
1 5% of demand 10% reduction
2 10% of demand 10% reduction
3 15% of demand 15% reduction
4 20% of demand 20% reduction
5 25% of demand 30% reduction
6 30% of demand 30% reduction
7 35% of demand 40% reduction
8 40% of demand 40% reduction
9 45% of demand 50% reduction
10 50% of demand 50% reduction
11 55% of demand Essential only
12 60% of demand Essential only
13 65% of demand Essential only
14 70% of demand Essential only
15 75% of demand Essential only
16 80% of demand Essential only
The table below outlines how households will experience load shedding in terms of hours off. The blocks of time out increase by 2 hours until there are four 6-hour blocks at stage 12.

From stage 13, the blocks start merging, and customers would experience a full 14 hours without power (a 6-hour block immediately following an 8-hour block). By stage 15, this merges again to 30 hours off.

Stage Blocks (32 hour cycle) Hours off
Stage 1 1 x 2-hour blocks 2
Stage 2 2 x 2-hour blocks 4
Stage 3 3 x 2-hour blocks 6
Stage 4 4 x 2-hour blocks 8
Stage 5 1 x 4-hour block, 3 x 2-hour blocks 10
Stage 6 2 x 4-hour blocks, 2 x 2-hour blocks 12
Stage 7 3 x 4-hour blocks, 1 x 2-hour block 14
Stage 8 4 x 4-hour blocks 16
Stage 9 1 x 6-hour block, 3 x 4-hour blocks 18
Stage 10 2 x 6-hour blocks, 2 x 4-hour blocks 20
Stage 11 3 x 6-hour blocks, 1 x 4-hour block 22
Stage 12 4 x 6-hour blocks 24
Stage 13 1 x 14-hour block, 2 x 6-hour block 26
Stage 14 2 x 14-hour blocks 28
Stage 15 1 x 30 hour block 30
Stage 16 Power off 32
