The power utility cited a low electricity demand for the weekend.
This comes as the country faced stage 1 load shedding from 4pm to midnight after braving stage 2 power cuts on Wednesday and Thursday over the same timeframe.
"Due to lower weekend demand load shedding will be suspended at midnight on Friday. Eskom will publish a further update on Sunday afternoon, or as soon as any significant changes occur," said Eskom. "Since Wednesday evening, a generation unit each at Arnot and Majuba power stations were returned to service while a generating unit each at Duvha, Hendrina, Lethabo and Tutuka power stations were taken offline for repairs."Due to lower weekend demand, loadshedding will be suspended at midnight on Friday. pic.twitter.com/DBgf8qgV0a
