[QUOTE="warick_wrx, post: 1154767, member: 15350"] From what I can see the system is said to work as follows: “An hour before the start of load-shedding, the system will prompt customers to reduce their consumption to 10 Amps by sending a message to their CIU and cellphone,” it said. “The system will provide the customer with four opportunities to reduce their consumption and thereafter, if the load has not been reduced, the meter will automatically switch off the electricity supply for the duration of the load-shedding period.” “The 10 Amps is based on individual customers (households),” Eskom added. If you have a system that standy system that supports blending then this wount be a porblem, however cheaper systems might prove to be a little more of a challange. But as per previous post it would depend on what system you where looking into. [/QUOTE]
