According to the information received from Eskom
All residential customers who fall within the allocated area to be funded by the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy qualify for free prepaid meters (20A) installed by Eskom or by municipalities. The electrification programme is rolled out in line with the municipalities’ Integrated Development Plans (IDP).
Only customers who require more than 20A supply are required to pay an upgrade fee from 20A to 60A.
