the line. For this purpose, several sensitive and expensive equipment were transported
to the site to complete the tests without interruption. All the 132 CTs and 24 PTs were
tested for their accuracy. The complete testing work took about ten days. For the first
time CPRI had undertaken site testing of CTs and PTs in such a large scale. Considering
the huge quantum of energy generated and transmitted in electric power system, such
intermittent verification of performance of Instrument transformers already installed in
power stations is necessary for operating the plant more efficiently.
The Institute has been meeting its non-plan expenditure through revenue generated by
testing and consultancy for the last ten years and the revenue has been increasing over
the years. The trend is expected to continue also during the current year. CPRI has
earned a revenue of Rs.1801 lakh during 1996-97 representing an increase of 39% over
the revenue earned during 1995-96 on account of its increased testing and consultancy
services. Anticipated revenue earnings for the Institute for the year 1997-98 is Rs.2315
lakh and efforts are made to achieve the same.
