STP and WTP operation

Published on

Namaskara. Please clarify on the following issues

1. Is it mandatory to provide standby pump drives in STP and WTP to ensure reliability and continuous operation?

2 If so, should the sanctioned Electricity correspond to only loads connected for normal operation or should the sanctioned power be increased to include all the standby loads?

3 If the sanctioned load corresponds to only connected loads for normal operation, not including standby loads, according to the Electricity act, can penalty be levied citing unauthorised connected load.

Thank you
