S.Africa: Electricity: Eskom removes over 35 illegally connected transformers
(005875.811-:E-000062.43:N-AC:R-SU:C-30:V)
Eskom, in collaboration with various law enforcement agencies, successfully removed over 35 illegally connected transformers in Diepsloot Extension 6, Gauteng on 20 August 2024.This joint operation is part of Eskom’s ongoing efforts to reclaim its network and alleviate the strain caused by unauthorised and illegal electricity connections.
In the 2022/23 financial year, Eskom experienced non-technical losses of around R5 billion due to illegal connections, meter bypasses, and other electricity-related criminal activities within its supply area. These illegal practices compromise Eskom’s financial health and its ability to deliver a dependable electricity supply to legitimate customers.
Illegally connected transformers not only destabilise the network, causing frequent supply interruptions, extended outages and substandard service for paying customers but also pose significant safety risks to Eskom technicians working on the system.
“We are deeply appreciative of the collaboration with the South African Police Service (SAPS), Joburg Metropolitan Police Department (JMPD), Red Ants, Eskom Protective Services, and private security companies, in ensuring the success of this operation," said Monde Bala, Eskom’s Group Executive for Distribution.
"These efforts are crucial in safeguarding Eskom’s assets, ensuring public safety, and mitigating the severe energy losses caused by illegal connections, meter bypasses, and acts of theft and vandalism." concluded Bala.
While most of our employees are dedicated and committed to delivering their daily job outputs and striving to enhance Eskom’s performance, we maintain a clear stance of zero tolerance towards crime and corruption. Consequently, we are currently investigating allegations from community leaders that some Eskom employees are allegedly involved in the sale of illegal transformers. We will update community leaders on the outcomes of these investigations once they are concluded.
Eskom calls on all communities to refrain from engaging in any illegal activities related to electricity. Members of the public are encouraged to report illegal connections, meter bypasses, and any suspicious activities to the Eskom Crime Line at 0800 11 27 22 or via WhatsApp at 081 333 3323. Additionally, anyone with information regarding the involvement of Eskom employees in illegal activities is urged to report anonymously for further investigation.

The 2nd Anglo Boer war is probably the only war where WHITE CHILDREN were the main victims by far! In this video we take a look at the dirty war that the British Army engaged in, in order to crush a tiny army of Dutch-German Farmers (the Boers) here in Africa. We look at photographs and information from that time. We also look at the role of the British Rothschilds and Jews in this war.
