During the Calendar Year 2006, the DakshinHaryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) constructed ninesub-stations of 33 KV level and augmented capacity of14 existing sub-stations of 33 KV level to strengthenpower distribution system in its jurisdiction. TheNigam renovated complete system of nine feeders of11 KV level by dividing each feeder into two feeders oflesser load and length. It added five new 11 KVfeeders in the system increasing the total number of11 KV feeders to 2303. The Nigam started process ofconstruction work of 22 sub-stations of 33 KV level,work of segregation of 17 feeders of 11 KV level andwork of augmentation of 13 sub-stations of 33 KVlevel.

During this period the Nigam added 6478 newdistribution transformers raising the total number oftransformers in the distribution network to 73441. Toensure regular power supply at proper voltage, thedamaged transformer in the area of DHBVN is beingreplaced within 48 hours.

DHBVN has prepared a plan of segregation ofdomestic load from tubewell load. Under it, 358feeders of 11 KV level would be segregated at a cost ofRs. 266 crores.

: DHBVN took newinitiatives to reduce Aggregate Technical andCommercial (AT&C) losses. To reduce length of lowtension (LT) system of distribution and to increaselength of High Tension (HT) system in its area, theNigam has decided to release all tubewellconnections on HT by installing independenttransformers. The consumers of other categories arealso being encouraged to take independenttransformers. Industrial units having load of 250 KW ormore have been allowed independent feeders.

To reduce line losses and to abate pilferage ofelectricity, DHBVN has initiated schemes laying highvoltage distribution system (HVDS) and low voltagedistribution system (LVDS) and electricity meters ofconsumers are being brought outside the premises ofthe consumers.

DHBVNhas set up Consumer Care Centers (CCC), BillingCenters and “Bijli Suvidha Kendras” (BSK) at alldistrict head quarters so as to give efficient service tothe consumers. At Consumer Care Center, all type ofcomplaints of consumers are redressed under singlewindow service in time bound manner. The complaintstaff have been provided with vehicles for attendingfaults even during night hours. Prompt and courteousservices to consumers are provided round the clock365 days a year at Bijli Suvidha Kendras. Theconsumers can lodge complaints regardinginterruption of power supply at BSKs at any time.

To improve Bill Distribution Service, the DHBVN

engaged Haryana Ex-services League (HESL) whoare performing the work of Meter Reading, BillDistribution and Cash Collection, particularly in ruralareas. In Urban areas, facility of payment of billsstands provided through banks. Cash CollectionMachines have also been planned to be set up atdifferent places in towns. One such machine hasalready been installed at Consumer Care Center,Hisar. The information of bills of HT consumers isprovided on the Web Site of the Nigam is planned tofacilitate the consumers for on line payment ofelectricity bills. The Nigam planned to introducingAutomatic Meter Reading System for HT consumers.With this, the meter reading of such consumers can betaken automatically at any time and there would be noneed to send any Nigam’s official to take the readings.

Under Rajiv Gandhi Gramin Vidyutikaran Yojna(RGGVY), DHBVN has initiated the scheme ofGramin Vidyut Pritinidhi (GVP). Under this scheme,GVPs have been appointed in about 100 villages inthe areas under DHBVN, thus, providing employmentto the rural ITI trained youths and better service torural consumers.

The Nigam has started a programme providing onthe spot connections in villages so as to dissuadepeople from using illegal Kundi connections andcommitting theft of electricity. On the spot connectionsare being released by organizing camps in villages.Each XEN will cover four villages in a month.

DHBVN declared Voluntary Disclosure Scheme(VDS) of unauthorized load twice during the calendaryear giving facility to consumers to get theirunauthorizedly extended load regularized withoutpaying any penalty.

The historic ArrearWaiver Scheme announced by Govt of Haryanaevoked enthusiastic response. Over 92 per centdefaulter tubewell consumers have started payingtheir bills and about 58 per cent domestic defaulterconsumers have also started paying their bills. Duringthe calendar year, Rs. 87.64 crores were collectedfrom defaulter consumers who have joined the arrearswaiver scheme.

Work of release of tubewell connections wasaccelerated during the year by getting the work doneon turn key basis. The Nigam released 8579 tubewellconnections. The pace of releasing of connections toother categories has also been faster and the Nigamreleased about 94452 new connections during thecalendar year.

: Due to different steps taken by theNigam, revenue collection during the year 2006increased by 230.30 crores over the correspondingperiod. The increase works out to be 11.58 percent

The state is all set to add nearly 5000 M.W.generating capacity during the next 30 months periodand the people of rural areaswould get power for 20 – 22hours daily after addition ofthis capacity.

It was stated by Mr.Bhupinder Singh Hooda,Chief Minister Haryana afterinaugurating 220K.V. sub-station at village NunaMajra and 132 K.V. sub-station at Modern IndustrialEstate, Bahadurgarh onDecmber 13 last. Thesubstations are to beconstructed by the Haryana Vidyut Prasaran Nigam(HVPN) at a cost of Rs.46 crores and 7.86 crores

respectively.With the commissioning of these sub-stations

around 1.5 lac electricityconsumers would be benefitedby way of better voltage andcontinuity of power supply. The220 K.V. sub- station wouldcater to the electricity demandof the area. It has beenproposed to connect the 220K.V. sub-station Nuna Majrawith 220 K.V. sub-stationDaulatabad by the end of nextyear. After linking of this sub-station the people of the areawould get power from 400 K.V.

Village Seka in district Mahendragarh is the firstvillage in Haryana to have High Voltage DistributionSystem (HVDS) of Electricity. The Dakshin HaryanaBijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) has completed the workof laying of HVDS in this village at a cost of Rs.47Lacs.

Village Seka has been provided with HVDS byinstalling 35 single phase distribution transformers of10 KVA, 16 KVA and 25KVA capacity as per therequirement of load of the village. These transformershave been connected to 11 KV feeder emanatingfrom 33KV substation, Dhani Bathotha. For joiningthe transformers, the feeder has been extendedmaking the High Voltage Ring Main around thevillage. Each consumer of the village has been givenconnection directly from the transformer by usingarmoured cable of proper size. All low tension lines inthe village, which was source of theft of electricity andaccident prone, have been dismantled. With this, thefthas come to almost zero level. Moreover, with theremoval of haphazardly laid PVC cables and lowtension lines the power distribution system in thevillage is now neat and clean.

Before starting the work of laying of HVDS invillage Seka, there were only 300 connections out oftotal 600 residential houses. Within a period of twomonths, after starting the work of creation of new

distribution system, number of connections hasincreased to 450 and is likely to go up to 600 shortly aslarge number of villagers are coming forward for newelectricity connections.

The DHBVN has educated the villagers onconservation of electricity and they have started usingcompact fluorescent lamps (CFL) in place of ordinarybulbs. This change of mindset to adopt energyconservation is the biggest advantage of providingthe HVDS as load on the system is graduallydecreasing. Now there is hardly any chance ofdamage of transformer with the laying of HVDSwhereas during last one year 10 transformers of 100KVA, costing Rs.12 lacs, have burnt in the village.DHBVN has relocated the electricity meters ofconsumers at boundary walls or front walls of thehouses.

The commercial loss in the village has comedown to almost zero. The case involved in laying theHVDS in the village is likely to be recovered withinthree years.

The DHBVN authorities have started the work oflaying of HVDS in over 40 villages of districtMahendragarh on the demand of villagers as thesystem ensures minimum interruptions in powersupply and in case of fault in any transformer, a smallnumber of consumers get affected.

The Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (UHBVN)and Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN)have decided to launch a scheme of incentive andrewards for best performance by the field staff ofoperation wing.

The cash rewards of Rs. 10,000/- & Rs. 12,500/-would be given to the best operation circle & the bestoperation division respectively. The Nigam wouldalso reward the best performing operation sub-division in every operation circle and Rs. 25,000/-would be paid on the basis of their performance to beanalyzed during the end of current financial year.

The Nigams has also decided to give cashrewards for improving performance parameters to

individuals such as SDOs, JEs, Lineman, AssistantLineman, Clerks & Accounts staff on half yearlybasis for achieving the improvements in operationaland revenue parameters.

The awards would be given on the basis of thequantum of increase in revenue realization,reduction of line losses, detection of power theftcases and recovery of defaulting amount, reductionin rate of damage of distribution transformers &return of damaged transformers to stores, reductionin tripping and breakdowns, upkeep of sub-stations,submission of material at site (MAS) accounts,timely submission of monthly accounts and pensioncases etc.

Potential of Electricity conservation in Haryana

8

Electricity is an important driver for industrial andagricultural growth. Electricity plays a vital role inimproving quality of life. Haryana has maderemarkable growth and is likely to continue to be oneof the fastest growing sates in India. Realizing theneed for substantial additional energy resources inorder to support the economic growth of the state, thestate power sector has been investing huge amountof money in power generation, transmission &distribution. But the investment has not been able tokeep up the pace with the economic growth and thesector has been facing problems of inadequatecapacity, poor quality and reliability. These shortagesare especially detrimental to industry and agriculture,the main engines powering economic growth of stateof Haryana.

Presently, Haryana is facing a shortage ofelectricity. The rate of increase in demand is gettingfaster with each passing year. During the currentfinancial year, it is about 17% or more. The HaryanaPower Utilities are making all out efforts to addinstalled generating capacity and strengthen powertransmission & distribution system, involving hugeinvestment in order to solve the chronic inadequaciesin power supply. But improving energy efficiencybefore increasing power supply is more economicallyefficient and wise strategy as improvement of energyefficiency can contribute considerably to reduce thegap between supply and demand because every unitof energy saved is equivalent to 1.3 unit of energygenerated.

Recognizing inefficiencies in existing energyutilization, the Govt. Of India enacted the energyconservation act in 2001 with a view to provide a legaland institutional framework to provide energyefficiency services and to enable the economy tobecome energy efficient. The Act envisages thedevelopment of policies and strategy with thrust onself-regulation and market principles for productionof energy efficiency in the economy. This can beachieved only with active participation of allstakeholders, most importantly state Govts., PowerUtilities and consumers.

Lighting in domestic and commercial sectorrepresents a large portion of electricity consumptionin Haryana and contributes a large amount to theevening peak load. Most of the households andcommercial institutes use incandescent lamps andlow efficiency fluorescent tube lights (FTL) forlighting. Promotion of compact fluorescent lamps(CFL), efficient fluorescent tube lights with electronicballast can contribute significantly in reduction ofelectricity consumption and thereby lowering peak

demands.CFLs are an excellent example of an energy

efficient technology. Illumination equal to standardincandescent lamps can be obtained from CFLs forabout 20-25% wattage. The rated life of the compactfluorescent lamps can be 5 to 10 times longer thanthat of incandescent lamps. Therefore, CFLs cansave as much as 75-80% of electricity used forlighting. Similarly high efficiency FTL can reduceenergy consumption by at least 10% overconventional FTLs. About 25% of the total power isbeing used for lighting in Haryana, which rises to over40% during evening and morning hours. By usingCFLs and high efficiency FTLs, the consumption canbe reduced by about 70% - that works out to about800 MW on an average and about 1400 MW duringevening, the time of peak electric load. It will help inreducing overloading and reduce the frequency ofpower cuts. The public buildings includinggovernment offices, educational institutes, hospitals,military institutions and other institutional buildings,are large consumers of energy in Haryana .Topromote energy efficiency in public building, theGovt. of Haryana has made the use of CFLsmandatory in the above buildings.

Haryana is predominantly an agricultural sateand farming is largely dependent on electricity runtube wells. In-spite of the issues related to depletionof ground water table, Haryana has highest density ofagricultural pump-sets ( over 10 tube wells per sq.KM area) . There are over 4.6 Lac irrigation pump-sets in Haryana. Around 40% of the total availableelectricity in the state is being used for running ofthese pump-sets. Studies have shown thatsignificant energy saving (25 to 30%) could beachieved through correct design and operation ofirrigation pump-sets.Adverse power factor as a resultof non-standard pumping equipments have resultedin system failure at the feeder and consumer end.Wide voltage range motors, power factor correctionunits (capacitors) and winding techniques can beemployed for efficient use of energy in agriculturalsector.

Haryana is emerging as a leading industrial stateof the country. Industrial sector plays a crucial role inrapid and balanced development of the state. Totackle the rapidly rising cost of energy, large andorganized industries have adopted energyconservation and efficiency measures through theenhancement of technology as well as managementto the extent that some industries have attainedenergy performance standards comparable to the

i n te rna t iona l leaders . However, suchimprovements have not been achieved by smalland medium enterprises, may be due to lack ofskilled and technical management personnel,capital limitations or lack of information. Many ofthese industrial units suffer from lower productivitydue to out-dated technology, poor operation andmaintenance practices and use of oldmachines/motors. Motor represents the largestend use in the industrial sector. Old motors arerewound and placed back in service. Highefficiency motor rewinding and use of motors ofproper capacity and proper load can saveelectricity considerably. Govt.of India, MoP,through BEE in Electricity Conservation Act-2001,has made it mandatory for all the 500 KW & aboveindustries to carry out the technical audit for itselectrical installation to ensure EnergyConservation. This will come in force w.e.f. April-2007.

Besides above, efficient use of domestic and

commercial electrical gadgets, use of non-conventionalenergy for lighting, cooking and water heating can leadto saving of electric energy to a considerable extent.The Energy Conservation Act 2001 has provision formandatory minimum efficiency standards and energystar labeling for equipment and appliances.

and standards for appliances,equipments and lighting offer a huge opportunity toimprove efficiency and energy labels empowerconsumers to informed-choices about the products thatwould lead to conservation of electricity.

Implementation of measures of energy efficiencyand demand side management can be possible onlywith partnership among the power utilities, consumersand manufacturing associations and vendors. There isscope of conserving more than 25% electricity inHaryana – i.e. as much energy which can be generatedfrom a power generating project of 1200 MW.Construction of a Thermal project of this much capacitywill cost over Rs.5000 crores. Moreover, if the fullenergy conservation potential was achieved, shortageof electricity would be no more as average shortage of

Energyefficiency labels

• Others

By making optimum use of electricity almost 125lac units of electricity can be saved daily in the State.Installation of a new power generating project toproduce this much power would cost Rs. 2400 crore.

It was stated by Mr Ashok Lavasa, FinancialCommissioner & Principal Secretary (Power) whileaddressing a state level seminar on EnergyConservation in Household Sector on the occasion ofNational Energy Conservation Day on Decmber 14 last.The seminar was arranged by the Uttar Haryana BijliVitran Nigam in co-ordination with HAREDA,department of Renewable Energy Haryana and theDistrictAdministration.

Mr Lavasa said that the judicious use of electricitywas the need of the hour. There is enough scope ofenergy conservation in agriculture and domesticsectors. Public awareness is necessary to give themessage of energy conservation effectively. We shouldtry to inculcate this habit in school and college studentsthrough different type of competitions like declamationcontest, poster making, essay writing, slogan writing ,poems, etc.

Mr B.S. Yadav, Project Director, HAREDA statedthat the architects should come out with new designs ofbuildings which were more energy efficient and requireminimum electricity. The Govt. of India has enforced theEnergy Conservation Act 2001 w.e.f. 1st April, 2002.The enforcement of the Energy ConservationRegulations including energy conservation buildingcode would start from April 01, 2007. Heavy penaltieswould be imposed on violation of the provisions of theAct.

The State Govt. has decided to give cash award ofRs. one lac, fifty thousand and twenty five thousand forthe best energy saving consumers in industrial (HT / LT)and commercial buildings. The Government of India hasdecided to give a subsidy of Rs. 400 per BHP onpurchase of ISI marked pump sets.

Mr A.K. Singh, Managing Director, Uttar HaryanaBijli Vitran Nigam said that the energy conservationexhibitions and seminars would be arranged in Kaithal,Karnal & Kurukshetra for the benefit of farmers. Heemphasized the need of launching energy conservationcampaign in the State.

Mr Brijendra Singh, Deputy Commissioner,Panchkula said that the administration would arrangecompetitions of students on energy conservationtheme. The visit of school students in energyconservation exhibition would also be ensured from15th to 17th December.

Earlier, Mr Lavasa Inaugurated on exhibition inwhich the Government Departments and PrivateEntrepreneurs displayed energy efficient products. Asmany as fifteen different stalls were installed for thispurpose in the Community Centre of Sector 9,Panchkula.

Mr Lavasa gave away cash prizes to students forbest performance in on the spot poster makingcompetition. Mr P.K. Das, Managing Director, HaryanaVidyut Prasaran Nigam, Mrs Jyoti Arora, ManagingDirector, Haryana Power Generation Corporation, MrParveen Kumar, Additional Deputy Commissioner andsenior officers were also present on the occasion.

Cal f pa in i s a commonoccurrence. If not managed early, itcan be become chronic. The causesof such pain could be a traumatic,vascular or neurogenic experience.Most of the calf injuries occur due totrauma caused by the followingfactors:

1 A sudden outburst ofacceleration leading to tearing sensation in the calfmuscles.

2 Individuals who are very keen to become fit in ashort span of time also sustain such an injury due to asudden increase in activity.

3 When the workload is increased beyond capacity,it also leads to painful injury in this region.

Calf is the most common site for muscle cramps andmuscle soreness. Muscle soreness occurs after the firsttraining session following a lay-off or during excessivetraining sessions.

Some individuals complain of episodes of cramping-types calf pain with exercises. It is generally presumedthat the pain is either caused by exercising ischemic legmuscles or has a neurogenic origin Vascular cause can beconfirmed from a Doppler ultra sound test andangiography. In such cases, pain may be felt in the thigh orthe calf with an exercise.At rest the peripheral pulses maybe difficult to palpate or are absent. In resistant cases,surgical treatment in the form of angiographic ballooncatheter dilatation or stenting or bypass surgery isundertaken

The neural component of calf pain can be due to lowerback problem (spinal stenosiss, prolapsed disc).

The superficial compartment syndrome also leads tocalf pain. This pain is aggravated with activity and relievedon rest. An elevated compartment pressure confirmsdiagnosis during exercise. Treatment comprises ofmassage therapy. When not successful, surgical

intervention is advisedDeep vein thrombosis should be suspected when

individuals suffer constant calf pain, tenderness,increased temperature and inflammation. Doppler scancan confirm the diagnosis. Prolonged sitting as in cases ofair travel, long car journeys and recent surgeries can alsolead to deep vein thrombosis.

Treatment included rest, ice compression andelevation during first 48 hours.

Bilateral heel lift is indicated to provide rest to the calfmuscle.

Aerobic activity is shifted from running to stationarycycling.

Ultrasound with massage helps in removing theinflammation.

Start the following exercises when the pain hasdecreased by about 25 per cent:

1 Sitting calf stretch- While sitting, loop a stretchband around the ball of the foot. Pull the band towards thebody while keeping the knee straight. Hold this position fora count of 15, and then relax. Repeat eight times.

Standing calf stretch- facing a wall, place both handsagainst the wall. Keep the injured leg back. Slowly, leanonto the wall while bending the front leg until a stretch isfelt in the calf muscle of the injured leg. Hold for count of15. Repeat it three times.

Heel walks- Walk on the heels for 20 meters with thetoes pointing straight ahead. Rotate your legs outward atthe hips so that the toes are pointing outward and againwalk for 20 meters. Rotate your legs inwards at the hips sothat your toes are pointing in, land walk on your heels for20 meters.

Standing calf raise_ Position your toes and balls ofthe feet on the staircase with the heels unsupported.Lower the heels until your calves are stressed. Repeat 10times. After some time one can hold dumb-bell in eachhand.

Prevention is the most effective form of management

SUDDEN INCREASE IN ACTIVITY MAY CAUSE CALF PAINDr. Ravinder ChadhaDirector, Health Services, Haryana, Power utilities

Are you Obese?Divide your weight in kg by the square of the

height (kg/m2) to calculate your BMI. If your BMIis equal to or more than 25, you're 'overwieght'and if it is 30+, "obese" ! Beware, raised BMI is amajor risk factor for chronic diseases such ascardio-vascular disease, diabetes, osteoarthritis,endometrial, breast,and colon cancers.

Did You know?

To burn.....• a 200 ml cola drink, you need to do skipping for

15 minutes• a slice of pizza, go biking for one- and a half

hours• just one samosa, you need to dance for half an

hour.• one parantha, you ought to cover two km in ten

minutes -Dr.Anju Ghei

Calorie Barter• One glass of toned milk is equivalent to four glasses of butter milk• 25gm of tapioca equals 40 gm of potato• One and a half slice of bread equals one cup of puffed rice or half a cup of cooked dalia• Two table spoons of besan equals 500 gm of nutri nuggets or half cup of Bengal gram• One chicken breast, four mutton pieces, or two pieces of fish..... take your pick?• 50 gm of soybean flour or 15 gm of almond? certainly not a difficult one
