ROTATIONAL SWITCH ON AFTER LOADSHEDDING – reduce power to avoid network tripping
Consumers are reminded to PLEASE use electricity sparingly after power returns. Please do not switch high-usage equipment on immediately after Load shedding.

Consumers are urged to turn off high-usage equipment and where possible to not switch on appliances such as stoves and kettles for at least 30 minutes after load shedding is scheduled to return. This will reduce the risk of overload tripping on the network.

Reporting power outages
Please do not phone the after-hours number or the Electrotechnical Department to report that you have no power immediately after load shedding is scheduled to be lifted. Please be aware of the rotational switching on i.e. areas are switched on one by one and not all at the same time to avoid overloading the system. Please wait at least 30 minutes before reporting no power. The Electrotechnical Directorate will be aware of a possible substation trip that needs to be sorted out.

The Civil Engineering Services (CES) Department of the George Municipality has moved its Customer Care Centre from Corner York and Market Street to its Depot which is situated at Brick Street, in the George Industrial area, with effect from 1st November 2023.

The CES Customer Centre is an existing centre which handles complaints such as water leaks, pipe bursts, sewerage, potholes, stormwater blockages, dirt roads requiring grading and streets requiring painting and signage. The Centre is operated by a team of customer service consultants equipped to handle complaints between the public/complainants and the CES’s staff members via telephone, emails, My Smart City App and walk-ins. The Customer Care Centre has extended its services to the CES main offices in the Corner of York and Market Streets, a satellite office that will handle walk-ins for complainants who prefer to come in and talk to consultants. This satellite office will be operated by one official who will liaise with the main Customer Care Centre in the Industrial area.

The relocation of the Centre aims to improve the turnaround time, operations and coordination between the Centre and the various engineers, technicians, officials, experts, and superintendents within the CES Department, as most of them are in the Industrial area.

The Customer Care Centre of the Civil Engineering Services Department can be contacted as follows:

Customer Services: 044 801 9262/6 (7.45 am – 4.30 pm)
