Salient Features of VDS for DS/NRS

i. The Scheme is open up to 31.3.2004 to regularize the extension in load of DS/NRS consumers

ii. The computation of the total load for DS/NRS consumer shall be done as follows and the consumer shall be required to fill Application & Agreement form for the     total load:-

Description	Domestic	NRS	Remarks
Light Point	60 Watts each(1/2 of total No. of light points to be taken into account)	80 Watts each	Fraction of light points under DS category to be taken as one point.
Fan Points	80 Watts each	100 Watts each
Wall sockets	60 Watts each (1/4 of total No. of sockets to be taken into account).	80 Watts each (1/3rd) of total No. of sockets to be taken into account).	Fraction of socket points to be taken as one socket.
Power sockets	1000 watts each (1/3rd of total No. of sockets to be taken into account)	2000 watts each (1/2 of total No. of sockets to betaken into account).	Fraction of socket to be taken as one socket.

The test report shall be prepared by JE/In charge for the total load and the same shall be kept in the consumer file. No test report shall be required to be furnished by the consumer.

Additional load as declared by the consumer shall be deemed to have been regularized from the date of submission of A&A forms and deposit of ACD and Service Connection Charges at the rates given in preceding paras.

iii. The total load(including unauthorized extension) shall be governed for the purpose of regulating service connection charges in the specific slabs, but the actual     charges are to be recovered for the unauthorized load only.

iv. Augmentation of service line/transformer and the power system including change of meter etc. shall be done by the Board at its own cost.

Salient Features of Voluntary Disclosure Scheme for Regulation of Extension of Load in Agriculture Sector

Being introduced now to remain valid up to 30.6.2004:-

i. AP consumers who got AP connections released under general or any other priority category shall deposit Rs.4000 per BHP for all types of motors for    unauthorized loads irrespective of the type of pump set installed.

ii. ACD @ Rs.200/- per BHP for the extension in load shall be deposited.

iii. The regularization shall be done immediately as deemed regularization on detection of unauthorized load or self declaration by the consumer regarding unauthorized     load. The formalities regarding submission of the sanction of A&A forms shall be done later on. The consumer shall install the shunt capacitors of requisite     capacity as per the total load and the test report should indicate the installation of such a capacitor.

iv. No load surcharge on self declaration or detection through checking shall be recovered from the AP consumers during the validity of the scheme.

v. Augmentation of the line and distribution transformer, wherever required after its close verification by Sr.Xen/Op concerned shall be done by PSEB at its cost.     For the purpose of regularization of the load, the loading of the transformers may be taken as 100% instead of the existing 80%. Secondly, in case with the     addition of  unauthorized load the loading becomes beyond 100%, the transformer up to 63/100 KVA may be installed on the existing pole mounting sub-station     with the prior approval of SE/Op

vi.The scheme shall remain valid up to 30.6.2004 . After the closure of the scheme in case tube well consumer is detected to have installed unauthorized load or     himself declares the unauthorized load, his case for regularization of unauthorized load shall be considered provided he pays the consumption charges for the last     six months in addition to the regularization charges mentioned in Para (i) & (ii) above.
