Madhya Pradesh Power Transmission Company (MP Transco) recently energized a new power transformer at 132 KV substation Seoni Malwa, increasing its transformation capacity in the Narmadapuram district. This new transformer has an additional 40 MVA capacity and will provide reliable and high-quality power supply to approximately 54,300 agricultural and domestic power consumers in 198 villages of the area. As a result of the commencement of power supply from this transformer, consumers will have access to power at proper voltage.
According to the Energy Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Shri Pradyuman Singh Tomar, MP Transco has installed and energized this transformer ahead of time as per the demand of the discom. This move will benefit consumers, particularly those residing in the Tehsil Headquarters Seoni Malwa and Dharamkundi area located eight kilometers away. MP Transco plans to install two new feeders of 33 KV from Seoni Malwa 132 KV substation in the Narmada Puram district, which will serve to provide power supply to the consumers.
MP Transco’s Executive Engineer, Laxman Arya, said that the company currently supplies electricity from the 132 KV Seoni Malwa substation through six feeders of 33 KV. With the installation of this new 40 MVA transformer, the transformation capacity of the Seoni Malwa substation has increased to 90 MVA. Furthermore, the transmission company transmits electricity through its three substations of 220 KV and six substations of 132 KV in the Narmadapuram district.
The total transformation capacity of Narmadapuram district has increased to 1925 MVA as a result of the upgrade.

The authorities hope that these developments will ensure that consumers receive adequate and uninterrupted power supply.
The new transformer has been installed to cater to the increasing demand for power supply in Seoni Malwa and adjoining areas. This development lays the foundation for supplying power to an increasing number of consumers in the future. The authorities have congratulated MP Transco personnel for their efforts to increase the transformation capacity of Seoni Malwa substation. The new power transformer will play a crucial role in upgrading the quality of power supply to consumers in the region.
