Karimnagar Completes RTFMS Integration Across All 82 Substations
Karimnagar is the first circle in TG NPDCL to connect all of its 82 substations to a system called RTFMS.
The substations are linked to SCADA, which lets officials monitor electricity feeders from a control room.
The system can alert staff when power stops, a feeder is overloaded, or voltage changes.
Officials say this helps workers find problems and respond faster.
So far, 1,005 of the 1,424 substations identified across the network have been connected.
The remaining 419 are expected to be connected within two months.
The utility says other circles are also close to completing the work.
Its stated goal is to improve the reliability of electricity supply.
Karimnagar is the first TG NPDCL circle to integrate all 82 substations with SCADA under RTFMS.
Across the network, 1,005 of 1,424 identified substations have been integrated; the remaining 419 are expected within two months.
Officials say RTFMS can monitor feeder performance and flag interruptions, overloads and voltage fluctuations in real time.
The system sends alerts to field staff, supporting faster fault response and power restoration, according to the utility.
Hanamkonda, Khammam and Kumaram Bheem Asifabad circles are expected to complete integration soon.
