Residents in Cape Town are warned of a scheduled 12-hour electricity outage on Saturday, 20 June. Multiple sources report that the power cut is planned as part of critical electricity upgrades. The outage is expected to affect parts of the city’s southern suburbs. Residents are advised to prepare for the loss of electricity during the stated period and to plan accordingly for household needs that rely on power.

While the reports confirm the timing and the purpose of the outage, they provide limited detail on the exact streets or specific substations affected. The coverage frames the interruption as a planned maintenance activity rather than an emergency supply failure, and it encourages residents to stay alert for any updates and communications related to the restoration of power at the end of the 12-hour window.
