⚡️ *SUBJECT:* RIETFONTEIN 88/66kV SUBSTATION 📌 *ATT:* FF PLUS | KEMPTON PARK 🗓 *DATE & TIME:* 23/02/2025 | 20:35pm ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💡 *UPDATE:* Dear Residents of Birchleigh North, parts of Birchleigh, Glen Marais, and Norkem Park, the Rietfontein 88/66kV stepdown substation decided to throw its own fireworks display earlier today, with panels inside going up in smoke. The City’s energy team is pulling every trick in the book to rig up a temporary fix by midnight—but, to be honest, it’s a Hail Mary pass at best. If that doesn’t hold, we’re looking at proper repairs with new parts, which could mean power restoration only by tomorrow evening. Keep those candles and generators ready—looks like it’s another candlelit dinner (or power nap) kind of night! 💚 *STAY INFORMED, FOLLOW:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaIZDiL89incHTlo4q2k 🏠 *AREAS AFFECTED:* • Birchleigh North • Parts of Birchleigh • Parts of Glen Marais • Parts of Norkem Park ⏰️ *ERT:* Ongoing — Your Friendly Neighborhood Energy Watcher Cllr Jéan Kriek FF Plus | Kempton Park 0645212429 | [email protected] ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #voteffplus2026🗳 #hitbackagainstbadservicedelivery👊🏼
