At present, our transmission system comprises 8 EHV stations and approximately 540 circuit kilometres of 220 kV lines. The power received at various EHV stations is supplied mainly through underground cables to our distribution receiving stations, for onward distribution to consumers.

Disaster Management aspects of T&D Distribution A disaster is a catastrophe, mishap, calamity or grave occurrence affecting any area, arising from natural or manmade causes, or by accident or negligence which results in substantial loss of life or human suffering or damage to, and destruction of property, or damage to, or degradation of, environment, and is of such a nature or magnitude as to be beyond the normal coping capacity. Central Electricity Authority defines disaster as an event which brings sudden great misfortune bringing disruption to normal activities including to that of Page 4 of 59 the power supply. As far as this document is concerned, disaster is synonymous with emergency and crisis. A well advanced disaster management plan is necessary to ensure that a disaster has least impact. The main features of a disaster are: Unpredictability Unfamiliarity Threat Speed Urgency Uncertainty 3.1 Types of Disasters: *Past Sr. Chances of Type Details Occurrence No. Occurrence History 1.

Water and Climate Related Floods / Cloud Burst / Tsunami Floods refer to huge amount of water reaching land in a short span of time, causing land surface to be submerged under water – at places where land surface is usually not covered with water. Floods could occur due to natural causes, or human activities, or a combination of both. Floods are caused by discharge of huge volume of water in a short span of time, at a rate, such that the water cannot be carried away from the scene of discharge. Some of the possible reasons for such huge discharge of water could be: - Very heavy rainfall in a short span of time. It should be noted that the amount of rainfall itself is not a sufficient cause, the duration within which the rainfall is receives is equally important contributor. - Breach in levy, dams, etc. - Very high tidal waves (sometimes in the aftermath of a seismic activity, e.g. earthquakes) etc. – also called tsunamis. Among the various kinds of disasters, flooding is unique in the sense that it has a very high degree of predictability, both in the short term, as well as long term. In most situations, flood prone areas are quite known, in the sense that they have a history of flooding. Only in very rare situations, a place might be flooded without having any past history of flooding. Even in such cases, a careful study of the area could give an indication of possible flooding. Indicators of Possible Flooding Usually, any of the following situations should indicate the possibility of flooding: - heavy rainfall in/around the vicinity, especially, if the specific
