POWERING THE FUTURE: A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY ON UPGRADING CHHATRAPATI SAMBHAJI NAGAR'S TRANSMISSION INFRASTRUCTURE
Keywords:
MSETCL, MSEDCL, STU, Loading, Transformers, DMICAbstract
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the 132kV and 220kV substations in Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar, Maharashtra, under the operational jurisdiction of MSETCL (Maharashtra State Electricity Transmission Company Limited). With a view towards enhancing network reliability, addressing load growth, and preparing for future urban and industrial demands, a new network proposal is presented. This proposal aligns with the upcoming State Transmission Utility (STU) plan and aims to improve transmission efficiency through strategic substation upgrades, the formation of a 132kV ring network, and optimal feeder realignments.
