Load shedding schedules ( 9 Files )
What is Load Shedding?
When there is insufficient power station capacity to supply the demand (load) from all the customers, the electricity system could become unstable, possibly resulting in a national black-out. To avoid this, Eskom can either increase supply or reduce demand.
To increase supply, Eskom will run its power stations at maximum available capacity. In addition to the coal and nuclear plant, hydro and open cycle gas turbine stations are used at peak times when demand is high.
To reduce demand, Eskom will first call on customer contracts that allow for supply to be reduced or interrupted for specific periods and durations. If this is not enough, Eskom is forced to cut supply to all other customers. This could be done through either Scheduled or Emergency Load Shedding.
During Scheduled load shedding parts of the network are switched off according to a predetermined schedule, with the impact spread equitably over the customer base. Shedding is predictable and allows for customers to plan accordingly.
In exceptional circumstances additional Emergency load shedding could be required. Control Centres will shed load using emergency switching in order to protect the network. This will be less predictable and all customers can expect to be affected at any time.

Bylaws ( 36 Files )
Ekurhuleni is a great place to live in and the Municipality is working hard to make it even better. To see to it that all Ekurhuleni residents continue enjoying their freedom in this City, the Municipality has certain rules on how to do things. These rules are called By-Laws and Policies.
{faqslider inline/sliders}
| What is a By-law? |
A By-law is a set of rules or legislation passed by the council of a municipality to regulate matters it is authorised to administer within its area of jurisdiction. A municipality derives the powers to pass a by-law from the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, which gives certain specified powers and competencies to local government. |
| Who is responsible for Enforcing Ekurhuleni By-laws and Policies? |
The various departments where By-laws regulating matters within their field of responsibility have been passed are responsible for the enforcing of the by-laws and policies in conjunction with the Department of Community Safety in terms of delegated authority from the Council. |
| Why do we have municipal By-laws? |
In terms of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa a municipality has exclusive municipal executive and legislative authority in its area of jurisdiction to inter alia pass and administer By-laws for the effective administration of matters that it has the right to administer and for its own internal proceedings and arrangements. All the By-laws applicable in the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality are listed in a register called the Municipal Code. |
| Process in passing or amending a By-law |
The By-Laws adopted since 6 December 2000 by the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality as well as some of the By-Laws of the disestablished Municipalities in place prior to 6 December 2000 which are still in force, are listed in the Municipal Code. The jurisdiction of each By-Law is indicated next to its listing in the Municipal Code. The By-Laws contained in the Municipal Code, are only amended and/ or updated once passed by Council and promulgated in terms of Sections 11, 12 and 13 of the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act, read with Section 7 of the Rationalisation of Local Government Affairs Act. |
