Power Fully Restored to Consumers Affected by The City’s Flooded Substation
Tshwane is pleased to announce that power has fully been restored just after 11 am today to the customers that are supplied by the substation which is housed in the basement of the Gauteng Provincial Government building, on the corner of Bosman and Pretorius Streets, on the Pretoria CBD.
Technicians managed to successfully drain out the water and cleaned and dried out the panels to the substation that was flooded last Wednesday which led to a power outage, which affected key government institutions.
The following government buildings were affected by the outage:
• Pretoria Magistrate’s Court
• Pretoria Central Police Station
• National Department of Social Development
• Department of Land Affairs and Rural Development
• Gauteng Provincial Government Building
