The 38-km 132 KV Pandaria-Mungeli High Tension (HT) line was inaugurated by Chhattisgarh State Power Distribution Company ltd (CSPDCl) Managing Director Vijay Singh in presence of senior officials of the company on Friday.
Speaking on the occasion, Singh said that the HT line had been completed at a cost of an estimated Rs 14 crore. Before the setting up of the new HT line, there was only a single line power supply available to 132/33 KV Sub Station Pandaria and 132/33 KV Kawardha Sub Station from the 220/132 KV Bemetra Sub Station , he said.
Before the setting up of the new HT line, domestic consumers and industrial units in Kabirdham district faced low voltage problems. With the start of the double line power distribution, the consumers, besides power supply received by Pandaria and Kawardha Sub Stations from 220 KV Sub Station at Bemetra, power supply from 220 KV Sub Station at Bhatapara had also been made available which would very soon connect to the 220 KV Sub Station at Mungeli, Singh said.
