The annual report of Technical Services Group for the calendar year 2013 has been
prepared for submission to different stakeholders such as GSO and GSC
Departments of NTDCL/DISCOs, WAPDA Power wing, GENCOs, IPPs,
renowned electrical contractors, etc., for giving a complete picture of the activities
of TSG. The General Manager (Services Division) NTDC wishes to place on
record its appreciation for services rendered by TSG’s staff, JICA and AKC/JICA
Consultants in achieving substantial progress of the Japanese Technical
Cooperation Project for Improvement of Training Capacity on Grid System
Operations and Maintenance in The Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

Foreword
Dear stakeholders, thank you for the continuous support for TSG. It had been 2.5
years passed since starting of the PROJECT. In 2013, TSG has drastically
improved by getting the aid from JICA
All textbooks were improved based on good suggestions from the stakeholder, new
technical information through the TOT (Training of Trainer) in JAPAN and new
equipment supplied by JICA.
And also TSG had occupied a good player as technical consultants in the field of
the P&I, Grids and T/L for the NTDCL and DISCOs. As a result, TSG dispatched
the Skill Enhanced 129 people, Promotion Criteria passed 326 people and refresher
course graduated 7 people. In addition, TSG held 7 seminars/workshops for the
related 249 people. Next year, TSG will continue to improve the training contents
and consulting power for the stakeholder.

1. INTRODUCTION OF TECHNICAL SERVICES GROUP
Technical Services Group, hereinafter called “TSG” was established in June 1985
vide an agreement between WAPDA (Govt. of Pakistan) and CIDA (Canadian
International Development Agency-Govt. of Canada) with the objective to improve
capabilities for maintaining the GSO system in WAPDA. The joint project of
CIDA-WAPDA was completed in 1990. Thereafter TSG was working without any
external support or assistance till the project under technical cooperation of JICA
(Japan) started in April, 2011 for capacity building of TSG. Since 2005, TSG is
functioning under the Services Division NTDCL.
1.1 Capacity Building of TSG
On 30.04.2005, an agreement was signed between Govt. of Pakistan and Govt. of
Japan for improvement of training capacity on grid system operation and
maintenance in Pakistan. Then the need of improvement of training capacity of
TSG NTDC was identified during the visit of a fact finding mission of JICA (Japan
International Cooperation Agency) Japan.
A team of AKC (Asia Kyodo-Sekkei Consultant)/JICA experts, arrived at TSG
Lahore in April 2011 for 1st survey visit of TSG NTDCL to undertake and start the
project. The 3-years project started in April 2011 and will be completed in
December 2014
Japanese Technical Cooperation Project for Improvement of Training
Capacity on Grid System Operations and Maintenance in The Islamic
Republic of Pakistan
The following three main objectives were set for the project:
a) Provision of new and modern training equipment by JICA
b) Revision/up-gradation of the old training course books and facilities based on
the knowledge and skills acquired through TOT
c) Training of trainers (TOT) of TSG engineers and instructors in Japan

1.2 Basic Policy of TSG
TSG Policy
To contribute to the continuous improvement in performance of grid system
in Pakistan through the basic technical education and the advanced
technology
Activities for achievement of target objectives of TSG Policy:
By maintaining a competent team of engineers and technicians in TSG as
technical expert as well as trainer,
By having an effective and numerically clear Annual Plan and Long Term
Plan of Trainings and Technical services,
By having an effective Maintenance & Management System of Training
Equipment and Facilities,
By introducing a culture of personal safety, fellow’s safety and equipment
safety not only while on the work but also in the general public,
By having a system of feedback, evaluation and technical information
sharing among all the stakeholders of TSG i.e. trainees, their supervisors and
management of GSO field of NTDCL/DISCOs & IPPs through meetings,
seminars, technical workshops, etc.
Through training of each technical employee of grid system operation and
maintenance, for improvement of his professional skill and better
contribution towards the development,
Through providing on-job trainings, technical services and consultancy in all
the three major fields of grid system i.e. Substation Equipment,
Transmission Lines and Protection & Instrumentation,
By having a regular time based as well as need based system of up-gradation
and revision of training courses at TSG training centers to keep them in-line
with the requirement of grid system operation and maintenance.

Trainings
To accomplish the target objectives based on TSG basic policy, TSG conducts
training courses mainly for GSO technical staff.
TSG training courses are of two basic categories, Skill Enhancement (SE) trainings
and Promotion Criteria (PC) trainings. Each category has three fields i.e., Grids
Operation and Maintenance, Protection & Instrumentation (P&I), and
Transmission Line (T/L).
Refresher courses and seminars/workshops are also conducted time to time along
with these trainings.
2.1 Training Purposes
Each training course of TSG has its specified purpose as described below:
Skill enhancement (SE) course is to learn applied theory of relevant courses
such as Grids Maintenance, P&I and Transmission Line maintenance
(Dead line & Live line) with practical in workshop / laboratory and
enhance technical skill for hands on working on the actual job.
Promotion Criteria (PC) course is to refresh the knowledge in relevant field
(grid maintenance, grid operation, P&I, T/L, etc.) through lectures and
fields visits of grid system.
Refresher Course/Short Course is to relearn about the specific equipment
through the lectures & demonstrations by TSG instructors or
manufacturer’s experts.
Seminar/Workshop is to learn about the new technologies presentations by
the manufacturer’s representatives.
2.2 Condition of Trainees for getting TSG Trainings
The conditions and entitlement criteria of trainees for getting TSG training is as
under:
7
For Skill Enhancement training: The trainee must be a regular technical
employee of GSO NTDLC/DISCOs/GENCOs/WAPDA and IPPs preferably with
1-year experience in the relevant field. The trainees having 3-years Diploma or
Bachelor of Engineering need no previous experience of GSO.
For Promotion Criteria training: The trainee should be a regular employee of
GSO NTDCL/DISCOs/GENCOs/WAPDA, should have passed departmental

4. ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE YEAR-2013
The main achievement by TSG are related to the project of capacity building of
TSG which was started in April 2011 with the cooperation of JICA Japan beside
the routine training program and technical services/consultancy services program
of TSG. The salient achievements during the year-2013 are as mentioned below:
4.1 Progress of the TSG/JICA Project for Capacity Building of TSG NTDCL
As per implementation strategy of the Project, the Project is being executed in two
ways i.e. indirect supervision of AKC/JICA Experts/Consultants from Japan and
site visits survey of AKC/JICA Experts/Consultants to TSG NTDCL Lahore
Pakistan. Progress on objectives and performance activities in this regard is as
under:
4.1.1 Outcome of the three main objectives of TSG/JICA Project
i) With the commencement of 3rd and last batch of TSG engineers and instructor’s
training of trainers (TOT) in February, 2013 in Japan, the objective of TOT
completed successfully. TOT of 1st batch and 2nd batch has already been
commenced in Japan in October, 2011 and November, 2012 respectively.
ii) The objective of provision of new and modern training equipment by JICA,
completed in 2013. All the proposed 45 items of training purpose testing
equipment have been received and deployed at TSG training centers NKLP
Lahore, Tarbela and Gatti Faisalabad.
iii) Revision/up-gradation of the old training course books of all the skill
enhancement courses has been completed in the year 2013. New books have been
printed partially and implemented.
Placement of TSG documents (Basic policy of TSG, Annual Plan for TSG
Trainings for the year 2013, Annual Report for the year 2012, Long Term
Strategy of TSG, SOP for TSG Trainings, SOP for Operation and
Maintenance of Grid System) on the website of NTDCL
