TGSPDCL Launches GIS-Based TGNMS for Power Management
The Telangana State Power Distribution Company Limited (TGSPDCL) has introduced a new system called TGNMS.
This system uses GIS technology to monitor and manage power distribution.
It helps to track power outages in real-time, identify faults quickly, and restore power faster.
The system is currently being implemented in various zones and will eventually cover the entire state.
It also helps in linking consumer service connections to their respective transformers, making it easier to identify and resolve issues.
The goal is to improve the overall quality of service and make the power distribution network more efficient.
TGSPDCL has developed a GIS-based system called TGNMS for real-time power network monitoring.
The system integrates all power distribution assets into a single digital platform.
GIS mapping is being carried out for various power distribution components across different zones.
The system enables quick identification of consumer complaint locations and faster fault detection.
TGNMS aims to reduce outage restoration time, improve service quality, and enhance transparency in grievance redressal.
