I am now the proud recipient of my brand new, shiny 2013 Load Shedding Schedule (Remember them saying there will be no more load shedding this year?)
Yup I can now forecast exactly when I will be without electricity, Ha!
Twice we have had a shutdown for an extended period and neither time has it coincided with the schedule.
My suggestion is this: Instead of destroying the forests by sending us schedules to which you are not going to stick to why not use the wasted money to improve the electricity infrastructure?
To make a mistake is human, to learn from that mistake is knowledge and knowledge is strength.
Oh goodie, I love load shedding. Servicing my back-up generator has been on my to-do list for a couple of months, it's now at the top of the list.

Have they actually started load shedding yet, according to my power monitor we haven't had an outage for over a year and even that was due to allowing our pre-paid to run out of units.

ESCOM did an upgrade on the overhead supply in our street a couple of weeks ago and the pole caught fire just afterwards, is this the new way of load shedding or just a sign of the times? Seriously I could not believe it. These guys are getting worse and it was ESCOM.
Maybe it'sa new communal heating system they're trying out. We've had a run of customers with supply problems recently, I've logged four fault reports in as many days. I still haven't heard of any load shedding in Cape Town yet and we should be past the worst stage of the high winter loads.

I think it's a new form of lighting, called a total loss system just like the rest of their projects. Another reason to go to the first world ASAP

You obviously have very little clue about the state of the UK electrical industry at the moment. Between Part P and domestic installers they've turned it into the Wild West. I'd rather take my chances here if I were you. If you're a fully qualified Master Electrcian you should never be short of work in this country, you might not die a multimillionaire but you'll earn a decent salary.

Any advice or suggestions about the UK electrical industry are most welcomed. I'm going because of the lifestyle. How is the UK system different? we have our single phase testers, domestic sparks here as well and it is very competitive.
