Electricity has returned to homes and businesses in Montclair, south of Durban, where residents have had no power since Sunday 🔌 ECRNewsWatch KZN
eThekwini Ward 64 councillor Gavin Hegter has highlighted aged electricity infrastructure as the reason for the extended blackouts."A lot of the infrastructure hasn't been serviced for 30-odd years, it's now starting to break down. So the current fault we are experiencing is the main feeder cable to the Montclair/Woodlands area on Sunday night.
"You can hear the generator running in the back, we were blessed enough to have my dad get one from work but it's costly to run it, we basically only runnig it to keep our freezer on.""We got a few things that have defrosted that we probably going to have to throw away or make do with whatever we got but my fridges have defrosted.
