The Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam has decided toallow one more final chance to those Engineers who have notpassed the Departmental Accounts, Examination within theprescribed 4 chances/2 years.

Failure to clear the examination by them will makethem liable for action against them as per the provisions.

Final Chance to pass Departmental Accounts Examination

Principles for

Communicating with People

(1) All People are motivated

We cannot motivate them.

We can only guide them by their

motivations.

(2) People do things for their own reasons; not

for yours or mine.

Show people what they want and they will

move heaven and earth to get it.

(3) People change because of pain.

When the pain of staying the same

becomes greater than the pain of

changing, people will change.

(4) The key to all effective communications is

identification.

When something becomes personal, it

becomes interesting.

(5) The best way to get people to pay attention

to you is to pay attention to them.

Little things mean a lot.

(6) Pride is a powerful motivator.

Everybody is proud of something.

(7) You cannot change people; only their

behaviours.

Attach the behaviour; not the person.

(8) The worker's perception becomes the

supervisor's reality.

What they see is what you get.

(9) You consistently get the behaviours you

consistently expect and reinforce.

Reinforcement can be positive or

negative.

(10)We all judge ourselves by our motives; but

we judge others by their actions.

Any of us can do anything we can convince

ourselves we are justified in doing.

F.C. (P) reviews operations and development activities of Power UtilitiesIn a meeting at Panchkula on june 6 last, Mr

Ashok Lavasa, Financial Commissioner & Principal

Secretary (Power) Haryana directed the officers of the

Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam to ensure that the

domestic connections under the Rajiv Gandhi

Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojna, to the people living

below poverty line in rural areas are released before

August 15 this year.

The meeting was convened to review the

power availability and supply position during ongoing

summer and ensuing paddy season. While reviewing

the progress of release of new tubewell connections,

he asked the officers

that the tubewell

connections to the

applicants pending for

more than six months

period be released by

Dec., 2007.

Mr Lavasa

said that the officers

are required to work

hard for bringing

down the present

a m a l g a m a t e d

t r a n s m i s s i o n &

commercial losses.

They are required to

make concerted sincere efforts to bring down the

AT&C losses by 6 percent.

He specifically pointed out that the power

sector was the most challenging field where the results

can be achieved only through dedication and hard

work. Emphasizing the need of ensuring regular

power supply to the consumers, he said, a minute

without electricity means a minute without all-round

development.

Referring to ensure un-interrupted power

supply in rural areas, he said that three spare

transformers of 25, 63 and 100 KVA capacity must be

kept ready in the agriculture dominated operation

sub-divisions. Similarly, two spare distribution

transformers are required to be given to other

operation sub-divisions for immediate replacement of

damaged transformers and restoring power supply.

Reviewing the progress of power supply

through High Voltage Distribution System (HVDS) and

Low Voltage Distribution System (LVDS), he said that

a sample survey must be conducted to analyze the

impact of erection of the new system by assessing

increase in revenue, increase in number of

connections, reduction in consumer complaints, etc.

Mr Lavasa said that the field officers must

ensure that the consumer complaints were timely

redressed. The consumers must be provided power

during the power supply hours announced by the

Utilities by minimizing breakdowns and timely

attending to the consumer complaints.

Mr O.S. Lohchab, Chairman, Haryana Power

Utilities said that the officers avoid to accept the

advance payment from the farmers for release of new

tubewell connections

a s p e r e x i s t i n g

instructions.

Earl ier, Mr

A . K . S i n g h ,

Managing Director,

UHBVNL said that

the Nigam would set

up 36 new 33KV

substations during

the current year. It

has been planned to

s e g r e g a t e t h e

d o m e s t i c a n d

tubewell load of 725

e x i s t i n g 1 1 K V

feeders supplying

power to rural areas at a cost of Rs. 218 crore. It will

benefit 3619 villages in Nigam's jurisdiction and most

of the work would be completed by December this

year.

The Nigam has fixed a target of bringing down

the amalgamated transmission & commercial losses

to 33 per cent from the existing 40 percent during the

year 2007-08 for which the distribution system is

being strengthened at the grass route level. It has

been decided to erect aerial bunched conductor lines

in coming HUDA sectors and supply power through

HVDS. The target of shifting 3300 non-domestic

consumer meters out of consumer premises having

load more than 20 KW and 87,500 domestic meters

has been fixed to reduce the losses.

He said that new 11KV feeders will be erected

to supply power to Civil Hospitals, Community Health

Centres and Primary Health Centres on top priority for

the convenience of indoor as well as outdoor patients.

Directors, Chief Engineers, Superintending

Engineers and other senior officers were also present

in the meeting.

Why India Should Cut Carbon EmissionsOver 320 million tonnes of coal was burnt in 2006-07 toproduce electricity, a lot of it in power stations owned byState electricity boards whose boilers are not efficient inextracting the energy in the coal. Critical appraisals showsome of these power plants have a thermal efficiency (ameasure of how much electrical energy they can extractfrom coal) of between 20 per cent and 30 per cent.(source: NTPC presentation to the IEA, 2004) Take outthe energy used in running the power plant, estimated tobe 8.5 per cent of energy that is generated, (source:Central Electricity Authority) and the losses intransmission and distribution (about20 per cent), the other example ofcrushing ineff iciency in theelectricity system, just about 14 percent to 22 per cent of the energy inthe coal finally reaches the plugpoint in your home.And in the evening when you switchon the light, typically a 60 Wincandescent bulb, in your livingroom, the decisive wastage takesplace. The bulb uses just 10 percent of the energy to light up theroom; the other 90 per cent is released as heat.So just 1.4 per cent to 2.2 per cent of the energy that oncewas in the coal turns up as the light that you want.In contrast, modern thermal plants are now capable of athermal efficiency in excess of 40 per cent, they consumeonly about 5 per cent in-station, and if transmission anddistribution losses can be contained at levels prevalent indeveloped countries, up to 35 per cent of the energy inthe coal can be served up as electricity to the consumer.This implies that if all plants and transmission lines areupgraded obviously the vintage units are beyondmakeover and need to be shut down the country canmake do with just two-thirds of the coal that it currentlyburns. Emissions will drop proportionately.However, if such corrective action is not launched, thescenario will get bleaker.Already the availability of electricity is 10 per cent short ofdemand and just about half the population has access toit. A 57 per cent increase in capacity is needed over thenext five years to meet the anticipated energy needs ofan economy growing at around 8 per cent a year and theother half of the populace aspiring to join thebandwagon.Some 542 million tonnes of coal will be required eachyear by 2012 to meet the demand for electricity. Coalmines in the country may not be able to produce enough;imports may be necessary and will be costly in a globalmarket where supplies are taut. The additional load ofcarbon emissions may be embarrassingly large.The challenge for the energy managers therefore wouldbe to see that the rapid ramp up in generation happenswith a much smaller increase in the quantity of coal burnt.Mandating minimum energy efficiency standards atpower plants could well be the key to achieving that.Efficiencies must be improved at the customer end aswell. Lighting accounts for about 20 per cent of the

electricity consumed, with most illumination coming fromincandescent bulbs that produce more heat than light. Aswitch to the more effective compact fluorescent lampscan save consumers a significant amount of energy.Take the case of the light in your living room again, notthe 60 W incandescent bulb but a 14 W compactfluorescent lamp that gives the same level of light. Youcan now light up four lamps with the same energy. Citiessuch as Bangalore are already urging their citizens to doso.

The CFL idea, if pushed throughnationally, can reduce electricityconsumption by at least 10 per cent.The environmental problemsassociated with the disposal of usedCFL lamps, which contain somequantity of mercury, must of coursebe simultaneously addressed withinstitutional mechanisms forcollection and recycling.Pumpsets used by farmers, whichaccount for about 15 per cent of theelectricity used nationwide, arenotoriously profligate. Various

studies have shown a potential for a 100 per centimprovement in efficiency, which means a 7 per centreduction in the overall electricity consumption.

Strengthening power transmission systemHaryana Power Utilities commissioned six new

substations, augmented thirteen existing substationsand constructed 44.104 Km long transmission lines witha total investment of Rs. 32.57 crore duringApril and May2007. The new substations are 132 KV substationNaguran and five 33KV substations at Gangoli, Manas,Mehmoodpur, Urlana & Sector 6, Rohtak. Theaugmentation covered two 200 KV substations at Palla 7Rania, two 132 KV substation at Kosli & Newal, four66KV substation at Barlana, Gangori, Basantpur &Sector 1, Panchkula and five 33KV substations at KothKalan, RD 0 Bhiwani, Sasrauli, Bhud Kalan & GarhiBirbal spread over in most of the districts in the State.

During the month of May 2007, four new substations(132KV substation Naguran and 33KV substations atMehmoodpur, Urlana & Sector 6, Rohtak) werecommissioned, five existing substations (132 KVsubstation Newal, 66KV substations at Gangori,Basantpu & Sector 1, Panchkula ad 66KV substationGarhi Birbal) augmented and 32.404 KM longtransmission line constructed at a total cost of Rs. 22.79crore.

The expanded transmission & distribution networkhas enhanced system reliability. The averagetransmission system availability in the State,as per CERC calculative formulas, during the year 2006-07 is 99.62%. The transmission system availability in theState was 99.59% inApril, 2007.

Segregation and bifurcation of feeders to improve system efficiencyThe Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) plansto segregate 490 existing feeders of 11 KV level anderect 358 new feeders by the end of December this yearat a cost of Rs. 268 crores.

The Nigam has launched the scheme ofsegregating domestic and agriculture load in villages toeliminate the discrimination to villages in supply ofpower, for which the power utility is compelled due tosubsidized power supply to agriculture sector. Thescheme for segregation of domestic and agriculture loadis an innovative scheme that could impact the day to daylife in entire rural area.

Implementation of the scheme will improvevoltage level and quality of power supply to tubewellsduring pre-determined period and it will ensureuninterrupted power supply in domestic sector ofvillages.

Besides this, the DHBVN plans to rehabilitate allthe feeders of 11kv level having load more than 150ampere by dividing each feeder into 2 or 3 feeders . Thelengthier feeders will also be divided into feeders ofshorter length. Under the scheme, DHBVN plans torehabilitate 100 such feeders at a cost of Rs.139 crores.During the process of rehabilitation of the feeders, thecomplete system will be renovated and demand of

additional distribution transformers will be met with.Under the scheme, old conductor will also be replacedwith new conductor of proper size and capacity.

To improve power distribution system in villages,DHBVN is creating High Voltage Distribution System(HVDS) and Low Voltage Distribution System (LVDS) ofpower supply. Besides improving quality of powersupply, the new system will restrain unscrupulous usersof electricity.

Under HVDS, a large number of single phasedistribution transformers of 10 KVA, 16 KVA and 25 KVA,as per requirement of load of village, are being installedaround the villages. For joining the transformers, thefeeders are being extended making high voltage ringmain around the villages. The transformers are beingprovided protection measures on low tension (LT) sidelike that of MCCB. Each consumer of the village is beinggiven connections directly from that transformer by usingarmoured cable of proper size. With the removal ofhaphazardly laid PVC cables, and low transmissionlines, the power distribution system in such villages isbecoming neat and clean. Under LVDS a very safe lowtension power distribution system is being created byerecting aerial bunched conductor (ABC).

DHBVN's ambitious plan for demand side managementThe Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam

(DHBVN) plans to spend Rs. 160 crore on demand sidemanagement (DSM) activities during the currentfinancial year.

Impetus to DSM activities has been givenbecause the lapse between peak demand and leandemand in Haryana is high and due to increased loadduring peak demand hours, the power utilities arecompelled to impose power cuts. The key objective ofthe DSM is to manage the load in such a way that theload curve is flattened.

The Nigam plans to introduce Time of Day (ToD)tariff and meters to all possible categories, wherebyindustrial High Tension (HT) & Low Tension (LT)consumers, large commercial & large residentialconsumers would be assessed on ToD basis over thenext few years. The consumers have been allowed touse prepaid meters at their premises.

DHBVN is promoting Compact FluorescentLights (CFLs). It can save as much as 70 per cent ofelectricity used for lighting. Similarly, high efficiency FTLcan reduce energy consumption by at least 36 per centover conventional FTLs. About 25 per cent of the totalpower is being used for lighting in Haryana, which risesto over 40 per cent during evening and morning hours.By using CFLs and high efficiency FTLs, theconsumption can be reduced by about 70 per cent thatworks out to about 800 MW on an average and about1400 MW during evening, the time of peak electric load.It will help in reducing overloading and reduce thefrequency of power cuts. The public buildings includinggovernment offices, educational institutes, hospitals,military institutions and other institutional buildings,are large consumers of energy in Haryana .To promoteenergy efficiency in public buildings, the Govt. ofHaryana has made the use of CFLs mandatory.DHBVN has made CFLs mandatory for new connectionseekersalso.

Energy efficiency labels and standards forappliances, equipments and lighting offer a hugeopportunity to improve efficiency and energy labelsempower consumers to informed-choices about theproducts that would lead to conservation of electricity.

The Nigam also plans to segregate agriculturalfeeders to assist in shifting of agricultural load to off peaktime and promote energy efficiency measures like theusage of capacitors amongst agricultural consumers.For effective DSM in the agricultural areas, switchablecapacitors and conversion of LT tubewells to HT systemare being planned. In future no tube well would be givenconnection on LT.

There are over 4.7 Lac irrigation pump-sets inHaryana. Around 40 per cent of the total availableelectricity in the state is being used for running of thesepump-sets. Studies have shown that significant energysaving (25 to 30 per cent) could be achieved throughcorrect design and operation of irrigation pump-sets.Adverse power factor as a result of non-standardpumping equipments has resulted in system failure at thefeeder and consumer end. DHBVN has decided to giveindependent transformer and HT connection at Nigam'scost to those farmers who change their old motors andpumps with new and star rated ones.

There is scope of conserving more than 25per cent electricity in Haryana i.e. as much energywhich can be generated from a power generatingproject of 1200 MW. Construction of a Thermal projectof this much capacity will cost over Rs.5000 crores.Moreover, if the full energy conservation potentialwas achieved, shortage of electricity would be nomore as average shortage of power in the state is lessthan 20 per cent.

Use of one CFL results into conservation of 70units of electricity per year. Generation of 70 units ofelectricity from a thermal plant causes 60 kilograms ofCO emissions polluting the environment.2

Lucky draw for buyers of star rated appliancesTo develop the habit of energy conservation and

to motivate the consumers to buy star rated appliances,

the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) has

decided to launch a scheme of lucky draws for its

consumers who purchase 3 to 5 starred electricity run

appliances.

under the scheme, a DHBVN consumer of any

category who purchases a 3 starred, 4 starred or 5

starred electric appliance/gadget may deposit, in the

nearby office of DHBVN, a copy of the receipt, along with

a copy of electricity bill proving his identity and a

document of the manufacturing company proving that

the appliance conforms to BEE's star rating scheme and

carries the 3 to 5 star label. He will be provided a receipt

for lucky draw containing his name, account number,

address, name of appliance, star rating of the appliance,

date of draw, etc.

DHBVN will conduct draws at all the Operation

Circle Head Quarters for each circle area and each

appliance/gadget. Each of three lucky winners of a draw

for each star rated appliance will be given a highest

available star rated appliance as prize, e. g. in case of

draw for refrigerators (star 3 to 5) at each operation circle

level, each of the three winners shall be given one 5

starred refrigerator; similarly in case of motors, ACs.,

ovens, pump sets, fans, coolers, CFLs, tubular lamps

and so on.

The receipts for lucky draws shall be made

DHBVN realizes its environmental obligationRealizing itsenvironmentalobligationand toensure

that working / fuse incandescent bulbs and compact

fluorescent lamps (CFLs) are properly disposed off, the

Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) has decided

to launch a lucky draw scheme for the consumers who

deposit such equipments with the DHBV N for disposing

themoff inproperway.

The Nigam has decided to promote the use of

energy conservation lighting products and energy

efficient pumps/motors on tubewells. The conventional

incandescent bulbs being used by the consumers

consume more power then CFLs, the Nigam is promoting

conversion from bulbs to CFLs. However, it is important

to ensure that incandescent bulbs are actually replaced

by CFLs and such bulbs are taken out of the system also.

Moreover, it is social obligation of DHBVN to dispose off

old material in a proper way.

The Nigam will issue receipts having unique

numbers against each incandescent bulbs, old

motors/pumps deposited by the consumers of any

wattage being used by him at present. A draw will be

conducted at Nigam's headquarter upon collection of

50,000 “working” incandescent bulbs for DHBVN as a

whole at Vidyut Sadan Hisar on 14 of concerned month

and a prize for lucky draw shall be decided later.

Apart from that, a lucky draw shall be conducted

at feeder level also. For a feeder level lucky draw, all

villages fed from the feeder should shift voluntarily to

CFL. A winner of first prize will be given 25 CFLs. there

would be two second prizes of 15 CFLs each and three 3

prizes of seven CFLs each.

th

rd

available at all Customer Care Centres and Sub

Divisional Offices from 15th June onwards. However, all

star appliances bought from 1st January, 2007 onwards

shall be eligible for the scheme.

Committee of respective General Manager

(Operations) and two Dy. General Managers

(Operations) of the respective circle of DHBVN shall

conduct the lucky draws on 14th September, 14th

December, 14th March and 14th June of each year. First

draw shall be on 14th September, 2007.

Under the provisions of the Energy Conservation

Act 2001, the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Govt.

of India has already started giving star rating to electric

appliances. The lowest rating is one star i.e. the product

is heavy electricity consumer. The highest rating is five

stars for appliances/gadgets that consume lowest

electricity. If people buy five starred appliances instead of

low starred, the monthly energy saving will be 27 per

cent, according to BEE.

Use of CFL mandatory for industries and commercial complexesAll industrial units, commercial complexes,

having more than 5 KW load, and Tentwalas in the areaof the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), willhave to switch over to Compact Fluorescent Lamps(CFL), instead of old incandescent bulbs.

Taking a major step for energy conservation, theDakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) hasdecided to make the use of Compact Florescent Lamps(CFL) or the efficient lighting system mandatory for alli n d u s t r i a l u n i t s a n dcommercial complexeshaving more than five KWload.

D H B V N h a salready made compulsorythe use of CFLs for theapplicants seeking newconnections of any categoryand the Government ofHaryana has already madeuse of CFLs in governmentbu i l d i ngs manda to ry.DHBVN is probably the firstelectricity utility in India to make use of CFL mandatoryfor lighting.

CFL is an excellent energy efficient technologyfor lighting and of utmost necessity for conservation ofelectricity. Illumination equal to standard incandescentlamps can be obtained from CFLs for about 20-25 percent wattage. The rated life of the compact fluorescentlamps can be 5 to 10 times longer than that ofincandescent lamps. Therefore, CFLs can save as much

as 70-80% of electricity used for lighting. Replacing oneordinary bulb with a CFL will result in annual saving of Rs283 for consumers. The upfront cost of the CFL will berecovered in three to four months.

DHBVN has already arranged sale of CFLs.at its all customer care centres at cheaper rate by joininghands with manufacturers.

About 25 per cent of the total power is beingused for lighting in Haryana, which rises to over 40 per

cent during evening andmorning hours. By usingCFLs, the consumption canbe reduced by about 70 percent that works out to beabout 800 MW on anaverage and about 1400 MWduring evening, the time ofpeak electric load. It will helpin reducing overloading andreduction in frequency ofpower cuts.

T h e H a r y a n aPower Utilities are making all

out efforts to add installed generating capacity andstrengthening power transmission and distributionsystem, involving huge cost, so as to solve the chronicinadequacies in power supply. But in improving energyefficiency before increasing power supply is moreeconomically efficient and wise strategy as improvementof energy efficiency can contribute considerably toreduce the gap between supply and demand.

Haryana leads in conservation of energyHaryana is the first State in the country to

issue comprehensive directions for efficient use ofenergy and conservation measures to conserveelectricity in domestic, commercial, industrial andagriculture sectors.

This was stated by the Financial Commissioner andPrincipal Secretary, Renewable Energy Department,Haryana, Mr. S.C. Choudhary at Chandigarh on June 20last. He said that the use of solar water heating systems,compact fluorescent lamps, ISI marked pump sets andaccessories and promotion of energy efficient buildingdesign had been made mandatory in the governmentbuildings, government aided institutions, boards andcorporations.

Mr. Choudhary said that Union Ministry of Power andMinistry of Non Conventional Energy Resources hadappreciated the steps taken by the HaryanaGovernment towards energy conservation measuresand had asked the other states also to follow the modelof Haryana and take the same measures of energysaving, which had been adopted by the HaryanaGovernment.

Director, Renewable Energy Department, Mrs.Sumita Mishra said that Bureau of Energy Efficiency

(BEE), Government of India had developed astar rating plan for labeling the equipments, based on itsefficiency. She said that under the plan, per yearminimum energy consumption and maximum energysaving of the equipment or product could be adjudgedand the rating of the energy efficiency would be fixedranging from 1 to 5 stars.

She said that the BEE had so far labeled variousmodels and capacities of frost free refrigerators, directcool refrigerators, air conditioners, tubular fluorescentlamps of the reputed brands. She further said thatmaximum power could be saved by using five starlabelled equipments.

She urged the consumers to use the star ratingproducts with a view to save maximum energy. She wasof the opinion that by purchasing maximum star ratingequipments by the State Government Departments,Agencies, Corporations and common consumersmaximum energy could be saved.

Well trained engineers will run the DBCR Thermal Yamunangar: MDThe upcoming Deen Bandhu Chhotu Ram

Thermal Power Project Yamuna Nagar willhave the properly trained technical staff to runthe plant smoothly. The Haryana PowerGeneration Corporation has planned to

select some engineers and technical staff members forposting in this project. They will be sent to the besttraining institutes in India as well as China to have thetraining. However, it will be ensured that the staff havingmore than five years to serve willbe sent for training so that theirservices are utilized in a properway at the project.

It was stated by Mrs Jyoti Arora,Managing Director, HaryanaPower Generation CorporationLimited while reviewing theprogress of construction activitiesof the project at site on June 11last.

She specifically stated that the two power generatingunits of 300 MW each would be commissioned as perschedule in Novermber, 2007 and February, 2008. TheState Government has given top most priority to thescheduled commissioning of the upcoming units and thestate would get 144 lac units of additional power dailywith the commissioning of these units.

Giving detail of the construction activities, she said, 86percent overall progress has been achieved in a shortperiod of 21 month. Some of the system such as RawWater System, PT plant, DM Plant, 220 KV Switchyard,Compressor, etc. have already been commissioned. TheHydraulic test of Boiler of unit-1 was three months aheadof schedule.

She said that all out efforts are being made to preponethe boiler light up of unit-1 by mid August, ahead of

schedule. The turbine erectionwork is also in full swing and theboxing up is likely to be achievedby the end of this month.

While exhorting the team ofproject engineers, to ensuretimely commissioning of theseGreenfield units, she directed thatthe critical activities related tomajor systems like coal handling,marshalling yard, cooling tower,

ash handling, etc. be monitored on daily basis at the levelof Chief Engineer construction, weekly by Directors andwill be reviewed monthly by the Managing Director.

Mr. J.C. Kinra, Chief of Operations, Mr. R.K. Sharma,Director, Mr. S.S. Chauhan and Mr. O.P.Manchanda,both Chief Engineers of the HPGCL and the seniorofficers of M/s Reliance Energy Limited were present.

UHBVN augments transmission systemIn order to further strengthen the power

distribution system, Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam(UHBVN) has started the construction work of 23 newsub-stations of 33 KV level and commissioned 6 new 33KV level sub-stations during the current financial year.

In order to minimize breakdowns and interruptions inpower supply, the load of 63 feeders of 11 KV level will bebifurcated or trifurcated during the year. Besides this, 55feeders of 11 KV level have been added in the system.

In order to ensure better voltage anduninterrupted power supply to theconsumers during peak load hours,8723 new distribution transformerswould be added in the system and theexisting transformers with smallcapacity would be replaced with thetransformers of higher capacity.

New 33 KV level sub-stationsat Sector-6, HUDA and Budhanpur inKarnal, Sardhana and Ferozpur Banger in Sonepat,Rasidon in Jind, Bamnauli in Jhajjar, Jhansa RoadKurukshetra and Jatwar in Yamunanagar had beencommissioned. The existing capacity of 33 KV level sub-stations at Jahajgarh, Machhrauli, Kahanpur, Beri,Ladian, Babepur in Rohtak, Bapoli, Naultha, Sanauliroad Panipat and Nalipura in Karnal, Habri inKurukshetra and Barota in Sonepat had beenaugmented. In addition, 52.94 kilometre new 33 KV lineswould be laid by the Nigam.

A scheme of Rs.255 crore had beenintroduced for giving adequate and quality power supplyto domestic consumers in villages for lighting purpose.Under this scheme, loan of Rs.149.50 crore has beensanctioned by Rural Electrification Corporation (REC),for segregation of rural domestic load from agriculturalload. With the completion of these projects forstrengthening power distribution system, the Nigamexpects a considerable reduction in line losses andsafe as well as hazard free power distribution system.

Under its ongoing plan tofurther strengthen the distributionsystem, the Uttar Haryana Bijli VitranNigam has decided to augmentexisting capacity of twenty 33KVsubstations at an estimated cost of Rs.ten crore during the current year.

The capac i ty o f 33KVsubstations Bhud Kalan, Sasrauli,Garhi Birabl, Singhana, Sugar MillSonipat, Bhalout, Kinana, Keorak,

Teek, Farmana, Teontha, Pharal, Murthali, Bahalgarh,Nigdhu, Jakholi, Paprala, Sec-6 Karnal, Sec-12 Karnaland Khanpur Kalan would be augmented to ensureuninterrupted power supply with better voltage.

The Nigam would install additional powertransformers for augmentation at most of these places. Ithas been decided to replace power transformers withhigher capacity transformers at some places. In all, 93.6Mega Volt Amperes capacity would be added tostrengthen the substations.

DHBVN's plan to strengthen transmission and distribution systemTo strengthen power transmission and

distribution system in its area, at the level up to 33 KV, theDakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) plans toconstruct 37 new sub-stations of 33 KV level andaugment capacity of 10 existing sub stations of 33 KVlevel in its area comprised of districts Sirsa, FatehabadHisar, Bhiwani, Mahendragarh, Rewari, Mewat,Gurgaon and Faridabad, during the financial year 2007-08. With the completion of this construction work, thecapacity of transmission and distribution system wouldbe augmented by 385 MVA.

To distribute power from these new substations,to release new power connections and to completesystem improvement works, DHBVN would erectadditional 20200 Kilometer long power distribution linesand wil add 6810 distribution transformers in the existingdense network of power distribution.

A major emphasis, to further strengthen thedistribution system, is being given to segregation of ruraldomestic load from rural agricultural load. This Rs. 268crores scheme has been introduced for giving adequateand qualitative power supply to domestic consumers invillages for lighting purpose. Under this scheme, 490existing feeders of 11 KV level are to be segregated and358 new feeders are to be erected.

An amount of Rs.139 crores are being spent forbifurcation of 100 lengthier and overloaded feeders of 11KV level during the year under Rajiv Gandhi GraminVidyutikaran Yojana (RGGVY). Under this scheme, allthe rural households, including those who are BelowPoverty Line (BPL) will be given electric connections.

The completion of these projects ofstrengthening power transmission and distributionsystem, the Nigam expects a considerable reduction inline losses and the power distribution system would besafe and hazard free.

Theft of electricity is cognizable offenceIn order to initiate action against the persons

indulging in theft of electricity, the provisions of IndianElectricityAct, 2003 have been amended and the offencehas been made cognizable and non-bailable.

The police will have all the powers to investigatethe offences under theAct.

Further, the courts have also been authorized totake the cognizance of the offence on the report of apolice officer under the provisions of Criminal ProcedureCode 1973. The special courts established under TheElectricity Act, 2003 are competent to take cognizance ofan offence without any trial.

The authorized officers of Power Utilities have tocompulsorily lodge the complaint with the police within 24hours of the detection of theft of electricity forinvestigation besides immediate disconnection at thespot. However, the licensee can restore the supply ofconsumer on the deposit of assessed amount pending itsadjudication in the special courts for the finaldetermination of criminal and civil liabilities. Undercriminal liabilities, the erring consumer, found stealingpower, will be fined and the courts can also awardimprisonment upto three years for first offence and uptofive years for subsequent offence.

Now onwards all the cases of meter tampering andabstraction of energy through unauthorized means orusage of electricity for the purpose other than authorizedwill also be covered under the criminal offence of theft ofelectricity. The amount of penalties imposed undersection 126 for non-criminal offences relating tounauthorized use of electricity have also been increasedand now the erring consumers will have to pay thepenalty at the rate two times the tariff for twelve monthsconsumption or for the entire period against the existingprovisions of one and a half time tariff for three months orsix months consumption.

A new provision has also been made under which thepersons found indulging in pilferage of power for thesecond time with a connected load of more than 10 KWwill be debarred from electricity supply for a period fromthree months to two years.

Nuclear Power PlantHaryana Chief Secretary, Mr. Prem Prashant on

June 20 last said that the work to set up a nuclear powerplant in the State would commence soon. In response tothe S ta te Gove rnmen t ' s p roposa l t o se tup the nuclear power plant, a special team of the CentralGovernment had visited the State and selected a site andalso conducted its inspection.

Four substations energized in Kaithal districtIn order to ensure uninterrupted power supply

with good voltage in Kaithal district during paddy season,the Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (UHBVN) hasenergized four new 33 KV sub-stations in this summer ata cost of Rs. 7.5 crore. The power transformers of 8Mega Volt Amperes (MVA) capacity have been installedin each sub-station.

The new sub-stations have been set up atvillage Manas, Badsui, Urlana and Mahmoodpur areaare known for providing paddy crops to the State pool.

33 KV sub-station Manas and Badsui had beenconnected with 132 KV sub-station Kaithal and Bhagalrespectively. The sub-stations constructed at Uriana andMahmoodpur have been connected with 132 KV sub-station Guhla. The Nigam had erected 48 kilometre long

new lines for transmission and supply of electricitythrough these sub-stations.

About 11000 consumers including 2000tubewell consumers of 20 villages have been benefitedby way of quality power supply. The energization ofthese sub-stations will also help in releasing 250 newconnections of different categories for which theapplications had been pending. Under its ongoingcampaign of setting up 36 new 33 KV sub-stationsduring the current financial year, he said, the Nigam hadalso commissioned 33 KV sub-stations at Sector-6,Rohtak, Gangoli (Jind) and Chor Karsa (Karnal). TheNigam is all set to energize four more sub-stations bythe end of July.

Fencing Around Distribution

Transformers in Urban Areas

Use of C-Type Wedge Boltless &

Universal Distribution Connectors

Adequate guarding of electricity lines

In order to avoid any eventuality and also to

safeguard the distribution transformer system in urban

areas, the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN)

has decided to provide unclimbed fencing of six feet

height invariably around the distribution transformers

installed on H-Pole or on Plinth.

As an offset it has been observed that in urban areas, the

space around the distribution transformers, installed on

H- Pole or on Plinth, is being utilized by the people either

for dumping of garbage or for the business activities by

the vendors in the commercial areas.

These activities not only spoil the aesthetic picture of the

distribution system rather they invite accidents and

poses threat to the lives of the human being. Some times

maintenance of these transformers also becomes very

difficult.

In order to minimize power loss in the terminal end

connections, the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam has

decided that henceforth C-Type Fired Wedge Boltless

connectors of high strength and high conductivity

aluminium alloy suitable for equipments/transmission

lines with all combination of aluminium to aluminium, or

aluminium to copper conductors, shall be used for line

jumpers, making connections to the equipments like,

isolators, circuit breakers, CTs, PTs, Lightning Arresters,

Bus Bars, etc.

The connectors shall suit the respective equipment in

respect of bolting/fixing arrangement. The T&PG

connectors shall be cartridge fixed “C” wedge type

conforming to ANSI-C119.4(AA): extra heavy duty class

tested.

Similarly Universal Distribution Connectors consisting of

locking insert made from a special Aluminium alloy of

high ductility and electrical conductivity, which can be

easily removed by screwdriver, shall be used for tenable

electrical and mechanical connection for solid, stranded

or compressed conductor combination. The use of UDC

shall indicate electrical stability for terminated

connectors.

In order to ensure the compliance of the safety rules for

construction of Electrical distribution Lines, the Dakshin

Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam has decided that adequate

guarding of LT/HT/EHT electrical lines over the crossing

would be provided in the following ways:-

TECH-TONICTECH-TONIC

1. The crossing span shall not be more than 80% of the

normal spans.

2. Cradle guards be provided for all crossing of

LT/HT/EHT Electrical Lines, so as to reduce /eliminate

hazards to life and property.

3. The minimum height above the ground level to lower

level of any cradle guards wires under condition of

maximum sag shall be as follows:

(a) For low, medium & high voltage lines upto 11 KV (if

bare) - 4.6 meter.

(b) For high voltage line above 11 KV 5.2 meter.

4. All guard wires shall be of galvanized steel of not less

than 6 SWG for bearer wires and 10 SWG for cross wires.

5. Every guard wire shall be connected with earth at each

point at which its electrical continuity is broken.

6. Every guard wire shall have an actual breaking

strength of not less than 635 kg.

7. Every guard wire for cross-connected system of guard

wire shall have sufficient current carrying capacity to

ensure the rendering dead, without risk of fusing of the

guard wire or wires till the contact of any live wire has

been removed.

8. The minimum height between any guard wire and live

crossing conductor under the most adverse conditions

shall not be less than 1.5 meters.

The Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam has decided

that, hence forth, the distribution transformers to be

procured for the release of tube well connections,

commensurate with the load of respective connection,

should have the following features:

1. The distribution transformers of capacities

5/10/16/20/25 KVA should be copper wound oil

immersed, oil natural air natural (ONAN) out door type.

2. The distribution transformers should have

Amorphous/CRGO core with CSP/MCCB Protection.

3. In case of turnkey works the colour of the transformers

should be orange.

4. The transformers should also have the auxiliary

assembly in LT distribution box with controller, for

integrated Remote load management system + Reactive

load management system + DT Metering, having

GSM/GPRS interface on the secondary side of the

distribution transformers.

5. The GSM/GPRS Interface & Controller should have

provision for Communication to Mobiles Control

Station/SCADAover GPRS. PC executing Programming

software can be connected to a controller through

GSM/GPRS Interface or M2M Gateway for transferring

applications, animating objects and executing operator

mode commands.

Transformers for tubewell connections

New Technical Measures to Reduce Losses

12

Under the scheme of Panchayat Franchisee,every village has been considered as a business unit forwhich the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam hasdecided that one HT meter on 11KV will be provided atthe entry point of HT line into the village for the purpose ofenergy accounting. In order to have proper village energyinterface, it has been decided to institutionalize thefollowing activities:1. Feeder wise survey shall be carried out for theidentification of number of villages being fed through the11KV feeder.2. Single line diagram of the 11KV rural feeders depictingthe names of the villages shall be prepared and needassessment about the installation of HT meter (Housed inPlinth mounted Pilfer Proof Metering Cubical dulyfenced) at the entry point of each village for energyinterface be envisaged.3. Village wise details of the installed capacities of all thedistribution transformers feeding general serviceconsumers and other transformers installed for the otherbasic amenity requirements of the villages also shall beshown in the single line diagram.4. In case where there is no separate link/T-off in the11KV rural feeder, feeding supply to the villagedistribution transformers, the feeding profile of the ruralfeeder shall be rerouted for the village so as to create theenergy input interface point for the village where the HTmeter shall be installed.5. Village wise data base of the general serviceconsumers' vis-à-vis name of the consumer, his accountnumber, category, sanctioned load, etc. shall also beprepared distribution transformer wise so as to enablevillage wise energy audit scheme of Nigam.

Let there be lightWithpowerbecomingexpensiveandhard toget,consumersarekeentoswitchover toenergyefficient technologies.The campaign against the century-old incandescent lightbulb has put environment-conscious consumers in adilemma. While a section of the green lobby is promotingCompact Florescent Light (CFLs), another group isagainst the switchover because CFLscontain mercury. And, if discardedh a p h a z a r d l y t h e y c a n p o s eenvironmental and health problems.While it is true that many Europeancountries are opting for CFLs it isimportant to remember that they have inplace stringent collection and recycling laws fordiscarded bulbs. Some experts are more keen on Light/Emitting Diodes (LEDs). At present LEDs have limiteduse because their energy intensity is low. LEDs use 40per cent less energy than CFLs and have a 10- year life.There is no doubt that there are very solid arguments infavour of CFLs. Green peace, which is spearheading the'Ban the Bulb' campaign, says CFLs use only 20% of theenergy used by a light bulb. Every day, India uses 18,000MW of electricity for lighting and much of it is wasted dueto inefficient light bulbs. By replacing all ordinary lightbulbs with CFLs, Greenpeace claims, India can reduceits CO emissions by 55 million tonnes. As far as mercuryin CFLs is concerned, the group says coal, which fires ourthermal based power plants, also contains mercury andaccounts for 70 per cent of mercury emissions in thecountry. So, CFLs they argue will reduce the energyrequirement and hence the mercury emissions fromthermal power plants. Agreeing that dangers of mercurycontamination persist if these new-age bulbs are notproperly disposed, Greenpeace says technology for safedisposal and recycling is available and the only'challenge is to ensure that such systems areimplemented in India'.This is where some green campaigners have a problemand justifiably so. They say India lacks a proper wastemanagement system and if CFLs (each bulb contains

2

five to 10 milligrams of mercury) are made mandatory, itwill mean that the lighting sector's annual consumption ofmercury will multiply by more than 10 times.In the US, the Environment Protection Agency treatsbroken fluorescent lamps as hazardous and these are notsent to landfills. Instead, they are sent to recycling

centers that break the lamps underspecial conditions and safely recoverthe mercury.The India government has also joinedthe CFL bandwagon. Power ministerShushil Kumar Shinde has announced

that the ministry will launch a 'Bachat CFL'. Scheme forBPL, families with a buyback provision for discardedlamps to minimise environmental hazards throughnegligent disposal.The green compainers also say that the governmentshould also make sure that basic power generation isenvironment friendly. To do this, we need to put ourmoney into renewable energy. Though the input costsand investment are high, it is energy-efficient and clean.Renewable energy is also a good option for remoteareas, which have little or no access to the main powerlines,. For this, we need to have a much more coordinatedeffort between the power Ministry and Ministry of Newand Renewable Energy. This partnership should bestrengthened by introducing micro financing in villages sothat residents can opt for cleaner sources of power andthereby become a part of a cleaner and greener world.

Only a few people knowthat T-12 tubelight has more

mercury than that of compactFluorescent Lamp.

Standardization of transformersizes/capacities for Rural & Urban

In order to keep pace with the present day

infrastructure development and ongoing system

improvement, it has been felt essential to standardize the

size/capacity of distribution transformers as per the

prevailing load profile in rural/urban areas. The

standardization specified is to be gradually completed

both for rural and urban areas within the FY 2007-08.

Nigam has introduced HVDS in the system and it

has been seen that copper wound transformers shall

have to be used for lower capacities particularly in HVDS

hence for HVDS, both copper wound and aluminium

wound transformers shall be used. Similarly for 33/.433

KV level transformers, copper wound transformers shall

be used.

It has been decided by DHBVN to have only the

following ratings of distribution transformers (all three

phase transformers):

All out efforts made to meet the growing demandIn order to ensure maximum availability of

power for consumers, Haryana Power Utilities arearranging electricity from all available sources includingDelhi.

Haryana is getting 100 MW electricity daily from Delhifrom 3:00 AM to 9:00 AM for six hours. Besides,arrangements had been made to procure power fromWest Bengal, Himachal Pradesh Government, HimachalPradesh State Electricity Board, Uttaranchal, Jammu &Kashmir, Madhya Pradesh, Calcutta Electricity SupplyCompany and Mumbai. These states and companieshad been supplying 80 to 90 Lac Units daily.

As many as 40 to 50 Lac Units of less power from thehydel projects due to cold weather conditions in hill areareducing availability of water required for powergeneration during the first week of June. Now the snowhad started melting due to summer and the hydrostations have started picking up. The State is likely to get

its full share from the hydro projects soon.The demand of electricity has increased due to

record high temperature during the last two, three days.Even then, all efforts are being made to supply power tothe consumers as per schedule already announced byPower Utilities.

About 70 to 80 Lac Units of electricity are being drawnand supplied to the consumers through over drawl fromthe northern grid. The over drawl is made in view of gridconditions and system parameters to cater therequirements. However, some unavoidable regulationsare being imposed due to overloading of power /distribution transformers.

The utilities had supplied 13.68 percent extra power tothe consumers during first nine days of June this year ascompared to power supplied during first nine days ofJune, 2005. He appealed the consumers to makeoptimum use of electricity and bear with the situation.
