There have been variations in the collection efficiency computations by the utilities
vis-à-vis the calculations of HERC. The collections efficiency as per HERC has
declined from 87 per cent in 2002-03 to 80 per cent in 2004-05 for DHBVNL and
from 76 to 74 per cent for UHBVNL for the same period.

Figures of AT&C losses for the period 2001-02 to 2004-05 in respect of DISCOMs of
Andhra Pradesh, Delhi, Rajasthan and Haryana are given at Annexure-I.
AT&C Loss Reduction Initiatives
A number of initiatives, as enumerated below, are planned by the DISCOMs to bring
down AT&C losses:
Augmentation and erection of new 33 kV sub-stations;
Addition of new distribution transformers;
Augmentation of conductor of 11 kV feeders;
Special checking by the field officers to detect theft of electricity;
Electromechanical and defective meters are being replaced with electronic
meters on top priority; and
Aerial Bunched Cables (ABC) and HVDS are proposed to replace bare
conductor in rural areas.
