Load shedding returns with 'high probability' to last until Thursday
Eskom says there will be stage 2 load shedding from 4pm on Tuesday until midnight.
The embattled power utility says this is because of a shortage of generation capacity.
Spokesperson Sikonathi Mantshantsha also warned that there is a high chance of it being repeated on Wednesday and Thursday during the same period.

"The breakdowns of a single generation unit at Arnot Power Station and three at Tutuka Power Station during the last 24 hours, as well as the delays in returning units to service at Arnot, Kusile and Tutuka power stations have put a severe strain on the power generation system.
"We currently have 4 550MW on planned maintenance, while another 14 182MW of capacity is unavailable due to breakdowns.”
