City Power said at 5pm on Monday afternoon, that power is back on, in areas supplied by the Sebenza Substation.
This follows a veld fire that tripped up the substation, causing a widespread outage to parts of Alexandra, Inner City, Midrand and Reuven Service Delivery Centres’ areas of supply.
Isaac Mangena, Spokesperson of City Power, said “Johannesburg Emergency Services managed to contain the fire and allowed our operators to complete the process of restoring supply.
Areas that fall under the Alexandra, Inner City, Midrand and Reuven SDCs have all been restored.”
