Electrical Network Mapping And Consumer Indexing

Creation of consumer database and consumer indexing: Indexing of all the consumers in all categories so that the consumers can be segregated feeder-wise and DT-wise is necessary.

1. The consumers are mapped using GIS technology and 3 identified based on their unique electrical address, called Consumer Index Number (CIN).

2. Mapping of Sub-transmission and Electrical Distribution Network: It is equally important to have all the 33 KV substations, 11 KV feeders, DTs and LT feeders digitally mapped and geo-referenced. The purpose of GIS Mapping and Indexing of the consumers is to identify and locate all the consumers on geographical map, which are being fed from the Distribution Mains. There may be cases where electric connection exists but it does not exist in the utility's record.

It may be a case of unauthorized connection or non-legderized connection. On the other hand, there may be cases where a connection exists in the utility's record, but it may not exist physically at site.
