Eskom is due to implement stage 2 load shedding on Wednesday.
It said this was due to capacity shortage and that the blackout would last from 9 am until 11 pm.
Stage two load shedding is implemented when the utility has to free 2,000 megawatts from the national power grid due to high demand or urgent maintenance.
Eskom said it was conducting maintenance work on its infrastructure but was now battling to bring some units back online.
Stage 2 schedule for today:
* 09H00 - 10H30: geysers, Groups 3
* 10H00 - 12H30: Groups 4, 5
* 12H00 - 14H30: Groups 6, 7
* 14H00 - 16H30: Groups 8, 1
* 16H00 - 18H30: Groups 2, 3
