TGSPDCL Plans Network Upgrades to Strengthen Telangana Power Supply

TGSPDCL wants to make electricity service more reliable in parts of Telangana.

The work will focus on the Chevella area.

New power connections between feeders will allow electricity to be redirected when needed.

This could reduce interruptions for consumers.

Another power line will be extended to give a substation an alternate supply source.

Officials will use drones to study and map power lines.

The maps will help workers find problems and plan repairs.

Jitesh V. Patil also checked safety practices and gave workers improved climbing equipment.
