eThekwini: Major cable fault in west of Durban
eThekwini asked residents of Pinetown, New Germany and surrounds to be patient on Wednesday as technicians worked to restore power to the affected areas.
The City said the issue began with a fault on a major cable.
It's one of two cables that receive power from the Umngeni Substation.

This created further delays.
