Eskom is assisting the city and has provided three monopoles which are already on site, said Daphne Mokwena, the utility's interim spokesperson.
The monopoles differ from the pylons in that the base is solid concrete, with the bottom being thicker than the top, said Mokwena. The foundation on which they are mounted is also made of concrete.With pylons, the tower members are targeted by thieves. When these are stolen, then it is easier for pylons to collapse when there is wind, Mokwena explained.
The tower members, marked above, are often targeted by thieves. When these are removed, it is easier for the pylon to collapse.The monopoles being provided by Eskom are locally manufactured. They are 23m tall, Mokwena said.Replacing the pylons as they were, would take longer, which is also why the monopoles are being considered. The area of the new power lines will cover 3km, as opposed to the 1km initially thought. It is not yet known how much repairing the damage would cost.
A preliminary schedule indicated that the repairs could be done by Thursday latest – but this is not yet confirmed.
