Sir,
Sub: PTCC proposal for the construction of 110 KV D/C line from Existing 110/11 KV S/S at Byagwat Manvi
Raichur to Proposed 40 MW ACME Babadham Solar power Pvt Ltd. Solar plant at village Amrawati near S/S
Byagwat , manvi taluk, Raichur District Under selfExecution-Basis.

The following points have been checked and the proposal for the subject line is sent. Please initiate
further action to obtain and communicate the route approval for the subject line.

SL Details Answer
No.
1. Whether the route map of the power line marked on the latest extract of TOPO sheets Route of proposed line
prepared by the survey of india to a scale of 1 inch = 1mile or 2 cm=1 km. TOPO features marked on TOPO sheet
should contain all the roads, highways, rivers, lakes, villages, townships, railway lines (Railway
station should be clearly marked ).
This feature should be marked up to 8km or 5 mile on either side of the proposed line
Note: Telecommunication Lines of P&T railways need not be marked.
2 If the proposed line is a Tap/LILO line, whether PTCC approval for the main line obtained -No-

3 If the answer for point 2 is yes, the number and date of PTCC approval -No-
4 If the answer of point 2 is not yes or no, whether the main line is marked as point 1 Yes
5 Whether the soil resistivity values taken along the route of proposed line furnished (one value Enclosed
for 2 or 3 KMS) to be furnished using 4 electrode method with inter electrode spacing of 50
Mtr. preferably using an ever shed VIGNOLES EARTH TESTER.
6 If it is a Tap Line (Where the main line is not approved by the PTCC, route approval is not N/A
traceable etc,) the soil resistivity values to be furnished for the main line also.
7 Whether the length of the proposed line as measured from the map tally with the length Yes
arrived by surveying
8 Whether the PTCC questionnaire duly filled up furnished Yes
9 Where the single line drawing of the connected station furnished Yes
10 Whether out line drawing of the tower to a suitable scale furnished (Main dimensions should Yes
be clearly marked)
11 Whether a certificate regarding the non-existence of Railway lines within 8 Km vicinity of the Railway track Does not
proposed line furnished. exist within 8 km vicinity
of the proposed line
12 Whether 33 sets of the above details of the proposal furnished -Yes-
