# Eskom says unit two of the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station experienced an unplanned, non-technical trip while operating at full capacity on Sunday. This resulted in the unit being safely shut down, however, it is expected to be reconnected to the national grid within 48 hours. Eskom’s spokesperson, Daphne Mokwena, says Koeberg unit two inadvertently tripped during the execution of work on unit one, which is currently offline for work to be conducted as part of its Long-Term Operation programme:
