Distribution Related Engineering Asset Management System
(DREAMS)
CESC – Electricity Generation & Distribution Company
Serving Calcutta & its adjoining areas since 1897.
The electrification of Calcutta took place 17 years
after New York & 11 years after London.
The Calcutta Tramways switched to electricity
from horse drawn carriages in 1902.
CESC now belongs to the youngest & one of the mostvibrant industrial houses – RP - Sanjiv GoenkaGroup since 2011.
CESC – Electricity Generation & Distribution Company
Licensed Area of 567 sq. km.
Total Generating Capacity : 1225 MW
Peak Demand : 1900 MW
Average Demand : 1600-1700 MW
Total Low Tension Consumer Base : 27.20 Lacs
Total High Tension Consumer Base : 1726
CESC’s ExperienceEarlier Scenario :
Unstructured and non uniform practices followed in
maintaining records of Asset and their up-keep.
CM & CBM were mostly not supported.
Leading to disproportionately more unplanned
maintenance than planned maintenance .
Difficulty in estimating maintenance cost and analyzing
maintenance performance.
Solution : CESC’s Asset Management Software.
Distribution Related Engineering Asset Management System
(DREAMS)
Features and Functionalities of DREAMS
Integrated Asset Register of major electrical plant and equipment in useincluding allied assets such as Substations building, premises and yards.
Maintenance Management functionalities encompassingPreventive Maintenance(PM)Status & Condition Monitoring (SM&CM)Condition Based Maintenance (CBM)Repair/Breakdown Maintenance (BM)Abnormal Observation (AO)
Carrying out all maintenance activities as per SM,CM,PM regimesstored in the system.
Analyze, interpret and maintain the transformers with the help of theDissolve Gas Analysis (DGA) Dash-Board tool integrated with the system.
Handing Over Taking Over (HOTO) Module for managing assets duringcreation, installation and commissioning before handing over toOperations & Maintenance (O/M) group.
ASSETS CONSIDERED

Total No. of Assets as on date : 24578
CODIFICATION OF ASSETS
DREAMS
An algorithm was formulated to assign an 8 character unique code to all assets
The left most character signifies the Super Category like Power Transformer etc. The next left most character denotes the Primary Voltage like 220KV etc. The next five digits from left is a unique serial number The right most character is used to differentiate amongst assets of same primary
voltage but with different secondary voltage.
Super Category : Power Transformer
220/132/33 KV Power Transformer A7*****O
132/33 KV Power Transformer A6*****O
33/20 KV Power Transformer A5*****A
33/11 KV Power Transformer A5*****B
33/11-6 KV Power Transformer A5*****C
33/6 KV Power Transformer A5*****D
20/6 KV Power Transformer A4*****O
11/6 KV Power Transformer A3*****O

ASSET REGISTER
DREAMS
Asset Searching Assets searched using different criteria such as category/location/make/name/Asset No.
All criteria appear on the upper part of left pane of the screen.
General Tab
The list of assets based on the selected searching criteria appears on the right pane.
All the attributes displayed alongside the asset no. with a scrolling facility.
ASSET REGISTER
DREAMS
Asset Sorting & Filtering Sorting of Assets based on the values of any attribute in ascending/descending
order.
Application of Filter on the values of any attribute of Assets.
ASSET REGISTER
DREAMS
Health Tab Indication of health of any asset through color codes based on the last observations from
SM/CM/AO. ‘RED’ -> URGENT ’BLUE’ -> IMPORTANT
ASSET REGISTER
DREAMS
Maintenance Tab Display of schedule for forthcoming maintenance activity (SM/CM/PM) as on date
through color codes based on the periodicity as mentioned in the maintenance Regime.‘RED’ -> OVERDUE ’BLUE’ -> scheduled within one month.
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Status Monitoring (SM) Monitoring of assets through visual inspection.
Urgent/Important observations posted in the system.
Job Allocation & Attending to the job by O&M engineers.
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Condition Monitoring (CM) Monitoring of assets by measurements through Intrusive & Non-Intrusive activities.
Non-Intrusive CM (e.g. Thermo-graphic Scanning etc.) measurements posted in the system.
Job Allocation & Attending to the job by O&M engineers.
Non-Intrusive CM Re-measurement done again.
Intrusive CM measurements (e.g. IR & PI Values etc.) are taken & posted by O&Mdepartments.
Non-Intrusive CM
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Preventive Maintenance (PM) The Preventive Maintenance (PM) done by O&M departments as per the schedule
mentioned in the PM Regime.
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Maintenance Regime The SM/CM/PM Regime for different categories of assets are stored in the system.
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Queries & Reports There are a host of queries & reports which caters to the diverse requirements across all
user departments.
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Dissolve Gas Analysis (DGA) Dash Board The results of gases (CH4,C2H2,C2H4 etc.) from oil samples of Power Transformer posted
inside the DGA Dash Board. Six different interpretation methods such as :- IEC Reference, ROGER’s Ratio, DORNENBERG’s
Ratio, Key Gas Method, Combustible Gas Method, Permissible Concentration Gas Methodused to interpret the health of the transformer.
MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS
DREAMS
Dissolve Gas Analysis (DGA) Dash Board The results of gases CH4,C2H2,C2H4 can also be plotted on Duval Triangle . Trend Analysis of dissolved gases through Line & Bar Chart is also possible.
