BSES Rajdhani Power Limited (BRPL) will prepare the power infrastructure at the Sardar Patel Covid Care Centre and Hospital.
In
a statement, BSES said that it has been tasked to prepare the power
infrastructure at the temporary COVID-19 facility by July 5.
BRPL
had initially been entrusted to provide an electric load of 18,000 KW
(18 MW). But, looking at the requirements, the power-load requirement
has now been increased to 23,000 KW(23 MW).
"For catering to this
massive load requirement, over 100 discom officials and workers are
working round-the-clock under the direct supervision of the company'
senior leadership team and in close coordination with the government and
other departments," the statement said.
For establishing the
power infrastructure, BRPL is laying four dedicated 11KV feeders, with a
length of around 5 kilometre each, totalling around 22 kilometre using
trenchless technology. All the cables are being laid-underground.
Apart
from this, twenty four distribution transformers that include 22
transformers of 1,000 KVA and 2 of 1,600 KVA) and 4 sub-stations are
being installed for setting-up the 25 MVA capacity across the four
locations in the premises, it said.
Further, for ensuring safety
of the premises, most of the transformers being set-up are dry-type,
which don't have the requirement of oil and are maintenance-free.
The
facility will get electricity from BSES' Fatehpur Beri Grid, with
sufficient redundancy to ensure that even if one of the lines trips, the
power-load can be routed from the alternate line.
"The work is
being carried on a war-footing by adhering to all the government safety
guidelines and protocols. Working against gruelling deadlines, BSES'
team managed to commission a load of 4,000 KW (4 MW) by June 25 by
energising 4 distribution transformers Rest of the load (19,000 kW or
19 MW) will be commissioned by July 5, 2020," it said.
