WAPDA Grid System
WAPDA Grid System
Transmission System of WAPDA links lower generating stations and load centers of the
entire country creating one of the world's largest contiguous grid system. The national grid,
connecting hydel generation in the north and thermal generation in mid country and the
south, consists of a large net work of transmission lines and grid stations of voltage levels
from 500kV to 33kV to transmit Power to load centers throughout the country to serve over
ten (10) million consumers of various categories.
National Transmission & Dispatch Company (NTDC) carries out design, maintenance and
operation of a network of secondary transmission lines and grid station throughout the
country. This system consists of 44030 Circuit km. of transmission lines (including 500kV,
132kV and 66kV) and 615 Nos. of grid station from 500kV down to 66kV level.
In order to disperse the available power in the load centers and from the private generation
projects it has become imperative to develop secondary transmission and grid system. A
comprehensive project in this connection has been planned and named as 5th Secondary
Transmission & Grid Station (STG) Project. This project envisages installation of new
secondary transmission facilities comprising of 220kV , 132kV & 66kV transmission lines and
grid station as well as strengthening of the existing system through additions, augmentation
and up-grading.
