Abstract:
Efficient decision making regarding revenue recovery
from the slum area has been the issue of utmost
concern in metropolitan cities. The first and the
foremost thing is that the methodology identifies the
pockets, where the revenue recovery has become an
issue for a power supply company. Then to lower the
revenue deficit from this pocket with the help of GIS, to
integrate it with a model that estimates the degree of
accessibility and capability of that area which includes
calculating the number of DTs (Distribution
Transformer) and substations feeding the area, further
calculating the power fed to this area and the amount
of revenue has been calculate from it, we undertook
this project. The areas under consideration during the
project are those that are notified under slums
improvement and clearance area act of 1956. The
project focusses on use of geospatial technology to find
out the details of consumers and estimate revenue,
outstanding to the utility. This paper will analyze the
characteristics of distribution network in slum areas.
We will discuss the problem related to minimizing the
gap between the consumer and the company in terms
of revenue. The result of the case study in the BRPL
division of Delhi that covers under BSES will help us in
policy making and come up with a special scheme that
will benefit both the provider as well as the consumer
of that area.

Introduction
The project intends to map JJ clusters (jhuggur Jhopri) identified by MCD (Municipal Cooperation of Delhi) and
use Geospatial tools to find the customers falling in these area. Project focuses on the power supply in JJ
clusters in the area of BRPL. Digitization of these JJ clusters has been done with the assistance of ArcGIS
software and is able to recognize near-by substations with reference to SAP Code, which supports in
demarcating the clusters getting power supply from different distribution transformers and Feeder Tracing
through ArcFM. These clusters face great challenge in terms of revenue. Government provide certain schemes
which provide aid to those people who are affiliated to these clusters so that the consumers can pay deficit
amount of revenue, which helps the government to come up with the new schemes. So, both the government
and the consumers can be benefitted.
This study is meant to improve the understanding the networking of electricity power distribution towards
effective power distribution. Most importantly, the BSES Rajdhani is expected to keep track of the electrical
facilities (poles, circuits, power lines and transformers) involved in the distribution of energy to the end-users.
With ArcGIS, variety of information can be better organized on a computer system linking the database to an
output map. GIS can effectively be used to manage and monitor information on the distribution of electricity
to end-users including information describing their spatial and non-spatial attributes such as geographical
location and electricity use.
Study Area
BSES provides power supply to West Delhi and South Delhi that comes under BRPL and have 19 Sub-Division.
There are about 351 JJ Cluster in this division which have been identified by Govt. of Delhi.

Feeder Tracing
Electric trace tasks allow you to check how current is flowing through a network of connected features
(substation, DT, poles etc.). You can place edge flags in ArcFM to define where the trace begins and ends
enable or disable features. You can define the upstream or downstream protective devices you want to find
and indicate phase configurations for tracing electric distribution throughout the network. With these options,
you can strategically tailor a variety of custom analysis tasks to specific implementations.
Electric Distribution Trace
The Electric Distribution trace finds all features connected to the same feeder system, by phase. If you change
the status of a switch or breaker, an Electric Distribution trace will return all features affected by the status
change. The trace operation executes as follows:
Find all circuit sources that can reach the flagged edge on one or more phases. If no sources are
located, the trace returns nothing.
If one or more sources are located, Arc FM traces from both ends of the flagged edge to each source.
The trace filters the results according to the value selected in the "Phase of conductors and devices" setting in
the Arc FM Electric Trace Options. The resulting features in addition to the flagged edge are returned as the
trace results.
Single Line Diagram (SLD)
The map displays the geographic location of all the facilities in the Lajpat Nagar area (Fig: 2). The entities
identified included the Low Tension Electric Poles, High Tension Electric Poles; high and low tension cables,
Distribution substation transformer, power transformers, feeders and Injection Substation. Figure shows a
more detailed map of the electricity distribution facilities connected to the end consumers. Instead of
representing each of three phases with a separate line or terminal, only one conductor is represented. It is a
form of block diagram graphically depicting the paths for power flows between entities of the system.
Elements on the diagram do not represent the physical size or location of the electrical equipment.

EHV (EXTRA HIGH VOLTAGE) SLD

The term grid usually refers to a network, and should not be taken to imply a particular physical layout or
breadth. Grid may also be used to refer to an entire continent’s electrical network, a regional transmission
network.
A grid is an inter-connector network for delivering electricity from supplier to consumer. It consists of
generating stations that produce electrical power, high voltage transmission line that carry power from distant
source to demand center.
Feeders are conductors which connect the consumer with the substation. The distribution feeder circuit
conductors leave the substation from a circuit breaker via underground cables or overhead cable, which shows
in single line
Methodology
Data Acquisition
The data acquisition began with the physical phenomenon to be measured. The first step in the methodology
of this work was the collection of the required data from the study area. In this case, there were two types of
GIS data involved which included: spatial and non-spatial data.
Spatial Data
The spatial data used for the research study include the following:
GPS Data: GPS Collection points on the available BRPL Division facilities -Poles, Transformers, etc. are
acquired from the BSES and they have used a Hand Held GPS.

Non-Spatial Data
The non-spatial data includes the following information which was acquired from the BSES:
Consumer Details: Assembly Name, Address of the Cluster, the Line Transmission Pole/Pillar to which
a Cluster is connected
Electrical Network Details: Single line diagrams with cable sizes (HT, LT), lengths, distribution
substation transformers, poles and low voltage networks i.e.-LT Cables.
For this study, BSES was the major source of Data both Spatial and Non-spatial.
JJ Cluster Mapping & Revenue Loss Estimation
The exploding population and the new industrial economy brought with it the slums in Delhi. What should we
call mechanical slums-rows and rows of crowded worker houses in the shadow of factory, parks, in an around
Yamuna bank, near the side of flyovers/bridges, which can be seen entering the city and new within the city.
Socio-economic conditions of JJ clusters are becoming worst day by day. People who are living in JJ clusters do
not have sufficient resources or enough income to meet the basic needs. For them to pay the electricity bill is
a hard job. BSES provides electricity to these clusters. They are unable to pay proper revenue on time.
Government planning to provides certain schemes to these clusters so that they can pay some amount of
revenue. So for these purpose Municipal Corporation of Delhi have assigned 351 JJ Cluster in Delhi.

Data were formally entered into their respective tables, created in Arc Catalog, in the Arc Map environment.
After the data entry process, the shapefile was saved in Arc Map in a folder for easy recovery, geo spatial
analysis and queries carried out on them. The data stored in the database forms the information base. Once
the layers were digitized, the non-spatial data were then added as attributes to the digitized features. This
attribute table was linked to the spatial themes containing geographic information. The database created
included location and descriptive information for all the different components of the system.

Result & Discussion
After identifying the pocket i.e. JJ Cluster and knowing Station which are feeding power to these areas. With
the help of ArcGIS we have digitize these pockets and tried to figure out substations (SAP code), DT, pole
number etc. the figure shows the JJ clusters with their attributes.

A proper database management system which intergrates with GIS can helped us to find how the consumers
are connected through the transformers, feeders, poles, circuit breakers through periodic updating and
monitoring GIS mapping of electrical network and consumer database to improve loss management, possibly
better consumer relationship and come up with new schemes and policies which can be implemented for
better management and efficient use of energy.

Conclusion
GIS could be a valuable tool not only for mapping facilities but for improved decision-making, better asset
infrastructure and above all identifying different electrical assets in the network.
The study has been focus mainly on identifying the pocket were the revenue recovery has been a major issue.
In the study area, 351 JJ clusters were mapped as per the information shared by DUSIB (Delhi Urban Shelter
Improvement Board) of BRPL divisions. The consumers are classified mainly into two categories i.e. live
consumer and disconnected consumer in JJ cluster, So as to know the number of consumers and also the
amount of revenue receive in this area, as shown in the table (list of consumers).

Conclusively, it has been observed that GIS applications have not reached the optimum exploration/level and
there is still room for further exploration and extension in the field (Power Sector) as far as utility service
delivery like in the case of electricity distribution is concerned.
The following recommendations are advised for efficient electricity distribution networks:
More efforts must be done to bring out refined and scientific approaches such as Geographic
Information Systems into the management of electricity distribution network in an around JJ Cluster.
Policy making should be done with ground based truthing by knowing needs and requirement of the people.
Monitoring of electricity distribution.
