Berhampur: In order to improve quality of power supply, the Tata Power Southern Odisha Distribution Limited (TPSODL) has established a new 33 KV line from Aska New Grid Substation to Nuagaon Primary Substation (PSS) in Ganjam district.
The Nuagaon PSS was receiving its 33 KV supply from the Aska Old Grid Substation previously. With the introduction of new line, a more stable and dependable power supply can be ensured, said TPSODL in a press release.
It will benefit around 16,000 consumers in 13 panchayats of Aska, Sheragada, and Purusottampur blocks. Those panchayats are Nuagam, Badakholi, Pandipathar, Sidhanai, Kharia, Baragam, Jayapur, Haridapadar, Babanapur, Bhetnai and Allipur of Aska block, Brahmanachai of Sheragada block and Tankachai of Purushottampur block.
Spanning approximately 5.5 km, the new infrastructure will not only enhance load-carrying capacity but also boost the reliability and resilience of the power network. The project will also address the issues of low voltage and frequent power interruptions. In case of any breakdown in the line from the Aska Old Grid Substation, the new line will seamlessly supply power from the Aska New Grid Substation, ensuring uninterrupted service.
“Our top priority is to provide our consumers with reliable and high-quality power supply. The newly implemented 33 KV line represents a major step forward in achieving this goal. We are committed to continuing our investments in infrastructure upgrades to better serve our communities,” said Amit Kumar Garg, CEO of TPSODL.
