Works well when theres no loadshedding and doesnt work after theres been loadshedding. Sit without power for 8 hours to a week without power.
Medium sized substation, intended for electricity distribution for much of the south of Centurion.Constructed in late 1970s to early 1980s.Incoming feed is from Rietvlei, distribution is to surrounding smaller substations as far away as Olievenhoutbosch.Initially there was some domestic distribution to the surrounding area. I dont know whether this is still kept up.When this substation fails, the entire southern part of Centurion blacks out. Because of the wide distribution, it is one of the substations used for load shedding.
