Green Initiative works (Electrical General Services)
Solar Initiatives:
ØAt present 1291 KW solar plants commissioned,4941 KW solar plants is under commissioning at rooftop of station buildings, platforms, service buildings, hospitals and sheds over ECR (through Public Private Partnership mode- 5941 KW and departmental -291 KW). By this approximately 15842 unit per day is expected to be generated through solar. Further 744 KW solar plant installation work is under process.
ØSolar Plant at unused vacant land:
1820 acres identified land is under tender process at Railway Energy Management Company Ltd (REMCL) for installation of solar power projects.
Detail of above lands are as below:
i)233 acres unused vacant land of Sonpur division (Katareah, Kursela & Garhara, Bihar) & 445 acres of Dhanbad division (Singrauli, Madhya Pradesh)
ii)166 acres of Dhanbad division in Jharkhand & 90 acres of Danapur division in Bihar at vacant land along the track.
iii)886 acres of Dhanbad division at along the track of grand chord section (160 KMPH speed).
ØDue to installation of solar plants and other energy conservation measures, there is decrease in consumption of electricity in non- traction by 0.03MU during the period of April’21 to October’21 w.r.t. corresponding period of last year.

Electric General Services (Power Supply) Summer Preparedness
(i)Passenger Amenities items
·Proper working of passenger amenities items like water coolers, air conditioners, master chiller plant, UTS/PRS etc.
·Working of ceiling fans (encl. Exhaust fans) and safety checks for suspension arrangement to be done.
(ii)Water Supply & Pumps
·Adequate availability of water at stations/washing lines and colonies etc.
·Availability of spare pumps and their spare parts like cable, starter, single phasing detector etc.
(iii)Sub -Station & Power Supply arrangements
·Overhead line network/UG cable network- Power overhead lines to be checked for proper sagging provision of guard and cross guard wires.
·Checks for IR value of transformer winding and BDV/Acidity test for transformer oil.
·Cable jointing kits to be used for jointing cable and proper crimping should be done to avoid twisted joints where existing.
·IR value and earth value of all critical electrical assets to be recorded.
·Power factor of each substation to be measured and improve to enhance the current carrying capacity of electrical circuit.
·Phase balancing to be achieved to minimize current in the neutral circuit.
·All protective relays should be checked for proper setting, all fuses should be of proper size. Ensure functioning of protection system in HT panel. Earthing of sub-station by plate earthing, neutral grounding by separate pit, recording of earth pit resistance.
(iv)DG set
·Proper working of DG sets , electricity supply to stations /colonies and sensitive locations, close coordination with local electricity board authorities. Garbage/inflammable materials /paper pieces should be removed from the vicinity of diesel tanks as fire is more prone during summer season. Joints of cables to be avoided in the vicinity of DG sets /HSD tanks and if not possible the cable jointing kits should be used or criped joints may be in boxes. Protection provided in DG sets like water temperature lub oil pressure and lub oil temperature must be in working order. MCBs/Change over switch connecting cable etc should be of proper size.
·Upkeep of spare parts of DG sets. Plan for overhauling of DG set, review existing AMC should be on OEM only. Genuineness of spare parts to be ensured.
