All about Electricity and the Solutions

Recently major fault has occurred at gate no.2 it is not for the 1st time, but a repetition and cannot be avoided in future unless the residents of Ardee City take recourse to other options. The service provider “ARDEE MANAGEMENT” not being capable while their intentions are not honest and at the same time being negligent . From residents they have collected installation charges and security for full required load of 5KVA to 10KVA which includes infrastructure development & payment to DHBVN, From the collected amount they have more than Rs. One Crore as security to be deposited with DHVBN but they have deposited only Rs. 25 Lacs (approximately) with DHVBN. The load capacity required at present (without residency) is almost 15 MW therein at least 65% of the connected load should been taken. Against this we are having only 5 MW load that too including residency which is quiet deficient.

Why the Ardee Management does not get enhanced load.

1. It is necessary to have 66KV substation for enhancement of load as per DHBVN for which Ardee Management is not releasing the payment and space though they have collected the money from all residents.

2.     Absence of 66 KV Power Substation for which RWA is fighting bitterly and taken up the matter with appropriate authorities – they are under notice and evading on one pretext or other. Some politician and middle men help them

3.     Dues of Rs. 6.92 crores towards common sharing of infrastructure in the absence of 66KV Substation have been levied upon them by DHBVN as per policy of Haryana Govt. vide letter no.Ch-166/Drg/project lead dt.12/01/2011.Since they have not paid they are  debarred from enhancement of load or release of any further connection.

4.     Ardee Management as a temporary relief proposed to obtain a fresh connection of electricity for Residency in the name of “Residency RWA”, but the same RWA declined for having no faith in Ardee Management.

5.     Even if Ardee Management does arrange for enhanced load still the cabling arrangements for the infrastructure in the colony is of only 11KV capacity, which is sufficient only for 5 MW of load.

Electricity is a necessity and not a must for source of income. Ardee Management is cheating the residents. A time bound notice has been served to Ardee Management.

To this arrangement for using other way of obtaining enhanced load, RWA has a solution, if at all RWA proposals are consented by residents and accepted by Ardee management

Proposals to be consented and considered by the residents.

Out of three proposals one is to be adopted by the residents.

1st Option:. Handing over the system and metering to DHBVN.

1)            The cost per unit family shall come to around Rs. 20000/- to 25000/- for 5KVA to 10KVA load. Maintenance and consequences shall be done by DHBVN only, as in other colonies.

2)            All families have to adopt this system. Cabling etc. shall be responsibility of DHBVN.

3)            No settlement of electric security already paid to Ardee Management, Relation in respect to electricity supply with Ardee management comes to Zero. You are liberated BUT no Power Backup will be possible in future. Street lights not included in the cost.

2nd Option:    If present Electricity system is maintained by RWA.

1)        Multiple bulk connections /meters at multiple locations and from multiple sources so that redundancy & deficiency can be detected and maintained in our place of single point meter system.

2)        To buy load as per requirement, no tripping, no shut down.

3)        Accountability & exterior repairs by your own representatives.

4)        No change in Power Tariff ( as per existing DHBVN rates + service charges ).

How to work out.

i) Try to get load cost from Ardee Management – then no extra money required to be paid by residents.

ii) If they do not pay proceedings as per Law shall be initiated against them.

iii) Residents to pay cost of metering approx 20000/- to 25000/- .Maintenance shall be done by RWA. Complaint centre in Ardee City, no time wasting – no sweating, no pilferage which affects your pockets and cause hardship. No tension. Power backup possible in future. Every family has to opt for this. We have detailed workings if opted we shall provide with full details and transparency. Cost of street lighting included.

3rd option: To continue with present systems –

1. Time bound notice to builder has been served.

2. Legal notice for ignorance & deficiency to follow.

3. Full preparation to fight case in HERC, highest Court of Law.

4. Long wait for results, until management installs 66KV Power Substation, and does  infrastructure upgraded.

5. Compensation for causing service deficiency to residents to be asked for.

6. Disproportionate & defective metered bills have been reported by residents.

7. Until load enhancement is received, Residents to bear external and internal load shedding. Colony has only 30% of total load requirement.

Now so far we have consulted Advisors/Consultants, option 2 has been advised to be adopted which seems to be only long & short term way out.
