Electrical Liaisoning Work

Statutory Approvals & Government Liaisoning

DISCOM & CEIG Electrical Liaisoning Services

Navigating government approvals and statutory clearances for industrial electrical installations can be a complex, time-consuming process. Setting up a new factory connection, upgrading contract demand, or commissioning a 11kV/33kV substation requires formal approvals from state electricity distribution companies (DISCOMs) and the Chief Electrical Inspectorate to Government (CEIG). At iPower Switchgear, we deliver reliable, end-to-end Electrical Liaisoning Services across Ahmedabad, Gujarat, and pan-India.

Our experienced team manages complete documentation, drawing submissions, field inspections, and sanction follow-ups with UGVCL, DGVCL, MGVCL, PGVCL, Torrent Power, GETCO, and the CEIG office — ensuring your project gets energized on schedule without regulatory delays.

Core Statutory Approvals & Services Handled

  • New HT/LT Power Sanction & Load Enhancement: Preparing application dossiers, load balance calculations, and securing demand sanctions from Gujarat DISCOMs.
  • CEIG Substation Drawing & Scheme Approval: Submitting single line diagrams, earthing layouts, equipment clearances, and securing formal CEIG approval prior to construction.
  • CEIG Charging Permission & Safety Certificate: Coordination of CEIG inspector site visits, pre-charging safety audits, and issuance of formal energization permission.
  • Captive Power & DG Set Registration: Approval and statutory registration of diesel generators and captive solar power units with the Electrical Inspectorate.

Statutory Approval Workflow with Gujarat DISCOMs & CEIG

Our liaisoning team executes complete statutory approval workflows in compliance with CEA Regulations and DISCOM Supply Codes:

  • Load Sanctioning & Agreement Formalization: Submitting A1 application forms, load calculations, and securing demand sanctions from UGVCL, DGVCL, MGVCL, PGVCL, or Torrent Power.
  • CEIG Drawing Submission & Scrutiny: Submitting single line diagrams, substation layouts, earthing drawings, and transformer specifications for CEIG approval.
  • Field Inspection & Safety Audit Coordination: Coordinating site inspections with Electrical Inspectors, resolving redline observations, and securing pre-charging safety certificates.
  • Meter Installation & Substation Energization: Overseeing DISCOM HT metering CT/PT testing, meter installation, and final substation charging.

GETCO & DISCOM High Voltage Approval Procedures

For 33kV and 66kV industrial receiving substations, we manage GETCO bay allocation approvals, line route sanctioning, tariff metering CT/PT accuracy testing, and statutory CEIG inspector safety sign-offs required prior to initial charging.

Drawing & Design Approval

We prepare, review, and submit the necessary Single Line Diagrams (SLDs), equipment layouts, and technical specifications for preliminary approval by the electrical inspectorate.

DISCOM / Utility Coordination

We manage load sanction applications, load extension requests, and coordinate with local utility boards (GETCO, Torrent, UGVCL, PGVCL) for new connections and meter installations.

Site Inspection Management

We coordinate and accompany the Chief Electrical Inspector (CEIG) or local authority during the mandatory site inspection, answering technical queries and demonstrating compliance.

Final Charging Permission

We drive the process through to completion, securing the final statutory charging certificate that legally permits you to energize your facility.

Frequently Asked Questions — Electrical Service

Why is CEIG approval mandatory before charging an HT substation in Gujarat?
Under Central Electricity Authority (CEA) regulations, any electrical installation operating at high or extra-high voltage must be inspected and approved by the Chief Electrical Inspectorate to Government (CEIG) before grid connection to guarantee public and workplace safety.
Which electricity distribution companies in Gujarat do you coordinate with?
We coordinate with all state distribution utilities (UGVCL, DGVCL, MGVCL, PGVCL), GETCO (transmission utility), and Torrent Power in urban centers like Ahmedabad and Surat.
What documents are required for an HT power sanction application?
Required documents include proof of land ownership/lease, factory registration certificate, proposed single line diagram, connected load list, transformer kVA requirements, and authorized signatory forms.
How long does the CEIG approval and charging permission process take?
Drawing approval typically takes 2 to 3 weeks following submission. Site inspection and charging permission take 1 to 2 weeks after physical installation completion and test report submission.
