Commissioning of a new transformer forms part of Phase 1 of the transformation upgrade at the Acornhoek substation, which will enable the substation to carry much more load and ensure a more reliable power supply to the areas fed through this substation, reports News 24.
The second phase of the upgrade at Acornhoek is underway and involves assembling of the second transformer.
The project which started in September 2014 is expected to be completed by April 2016.
