Old’ Kunduz substation
This
sub-station had a capacity of 3.2 MVA, and used step down from
35 kV to 6 kV from Pulikhumri-11. This substation is partly
damaged, mainly the protection gear, and requires about
US$30,000 for its rehabilitation and updating.
New’ Kunduz substation.
This
sub-station steps down from 110 kV to 35 kV and 6 kV, and has a
capacity of 32 MVA using2 transformers of 16 MVA. The
sub-station was built to utilize imported electricity from
Tajikistan. In1990 the sub-station was damage. The transformers
need to be replaced or repaired together with new switchgear,
etc. MWP rehabilitated the transmission line and substation with
Government funds which was completed in early 2003.
Transmission Line Tajikistan-Kunduz.
This
110 kV single circuit line was built on P.C.C. poles. It is
badly damaged, needing new insulators and conductor. The cost
for rehabilitation is estimated at US$1,200,000, which would
increase the capacity to import by 32 MW. The reconstruction
work was completed, and the line was re-commissioned in early
2003. Transmission line-‘New’ substation to ‘Old’ substation.
The single circuit line transmission voltage 35 kV length 5 km
is operational, requiring only proper connections and joints to
reduce losses. Repair work is proceeding and MWP expects to
re-commission this line in May 2003.
Transmission line Pulikhumri to Kunduz. The single circuit line
of 82.4 km, with a transmitting voltage designed for 110 kV and
used for 35 kV is completely destroyed. Connection of
Pulikhumri-I1 to Kunduz would require US$8 million. This line,
if repaired, 24 would be erected as 200 kV instead of 110 kV and
would also provide electricity to Baghlan rural areas.
Distribution network.
The region had a total network of 333 km having various voltages
of 20 kV, 6 kVlO.4 kV. The distribution system suffered 60 %
damage, with over 32 km of 20 kV line destroyed. The region had
two main distribution networks; Baghlan network, and Kunduz
network.
