City of Ekurhuleni tightens security around its electricity infrastructure
The City of Ekurhuleni said its beefed up security measures around its electricity infrastructure in a bid to curb growing incidents of theft and vandalism that have resulted in multiple outages.
The city has appointed private security services and introduced new technology – to support metropolitan police officers – who are faced with increasing attacks on the power infrastructure, especially during load shedding.
The spokesperson for the Water, Sanitation, and Energy MMC Zweli Dlamini said the additional measures were aimed at protecting substations and cables – which are often targetted by criminals.
“In some instances, we are talking about transformers – the situation has become untenable. That is why as a municipality we are moving towards looking at any possible intervention that can assist us in terms of fighting this scourge of crime.”
