The comments followed an explosion of a motor connected to one of the pumps at Rand Water's Zuikerbosch water treatment plant on January 27, which impacted water supply for households, businesses and communities across Gauteng, particularly in the Johannesburg, Tshwane and Ekurhuleni metropolitans.
