Udaipur Power Cut: 7-Hour Electricity Outage in 19 Areas Under Biliya GSS Including Titardi & Ambafala on Monday [AVVNL Schedule]

Residents across prominent southern residential sectors of the Lake City face a temporary disruption in municipal electricity supply on Monday as power distribution authorities initiate extensive pre-winter grid overhauls. According to an official notification issued by Ajmer Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited (AVVNL), a scheduled udaipur power cut titardi biliya operation will remain in effect for seven continuous hours—from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM—impacting 19 residential colonies, commercial complexes, and suburban settlements connected to the Biliya Grid Substation (GSS).

The power shutdown is part of AVVNL’s annual grid-hardening and pre-festive maintenance schedule. With significant electrical infrastructure shifts already underway across the city—including major power transformer relocations detailed in our report on the Thokar and Shobhagpura junction widening projects—the power utility is conducting preventive line maintenance to eliminate technical faults, replace aging insulators, and ensure unhindered power distribution ahead of the peak Diwali festive demand.

Shutdown Timings & Feeder Coverage Under Biliya GSS

According to technical supervisors at the AVVNL Udaipur Circle, the shutdown will commence promptly at 10:00 AM on Monday morning and will conclude by 5:00 PM in the evening. The operational outage directly impacts the 33/11 kV Biliya GSS feeder network, which supplies high-tension and domestic low-tension power to densely populated residential corridors between Titardi, Savina bypass, and rural hinterlands toward Ambafala.

AVVNL maintenance engineers confirmed that field crews have been deployed to execute multi-point servicing simultaneously to ensure power is restored as early as possible once testing concludes. However, domestic and commercial consumers across the affected zones are strongly advised to plan their daytime electricity requirements accordingly.

Complete List of 19 Affected Colonies & Localities

The 7-hour power cut encompasses 19 primary residential colonies, suburban extensions, and commercial clusters falling under the administrative jurisdiction of the Biliya GSS feeder circuit:

Technical Scope: Why AVVNL Scheduled the 7-Hour Outage

The extensive 7-hour duration is necessitated by a comprehensive range of electrical civil and technical interventions planned along the 11 kV high-tension feeder lines:

• Line Hardware & Insulator Replacement: Technicians will replace weathered disc and pin insulators that risk flashovers or short-circuits during seasonal moisture variations.
• Vegetation & Tree Branch Clearing: Extensive pruning of overgrown tree branches in close proximity to overhead cables will be undertaken across Titardi and Ratapar to eliminate tripping risks during gusty winds.
• Distribution Transformer Maintenance: Substation teams will check transformer oil levels, replace worn-out jumpers, and balance phase loads across residential transformers.
• Pre-Diwali Grid Hardening: With festival lighting loads set to spike by late October, grid stability works are essential to protect the Lake City’s electrical network, complementing civic upgrades across Udaipur’s heritage and tourism corridors.

Resident Advisory & Essential Preparation Tips

The prolonged daytime outage from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM is likely to affect domestic water supply pumping, remote work routines, and refrigeration. AVVNL and civic authorities recommend the following precautionary measures:

• Domestic Water Pumping: Fill overhead storage tanks and underground reservoirs prior to 10:00 AM, as local pressure booster pumps will remain non-operational during the shutdown.
• Inverter & Device Charging: Ensure home inverters, battery backup systems, laptops, and mobile communication devices are charged to full capacity by Monday morning.
• Commercial & Medical Establishments: Private clinics, diagnostic labs, and retail complexes within RSG Complex and Titardi main market should prepare diesel generator (DG) backups to prevent operational delays.
• Supply Restoration Notice: AVVNL officials noted that electricity supply may be restored earlier than 5:00 PM without prior notification if line maintenance finishes ahead of schedule. Citizens are urged to treat all electrical apparatus as live throughout the maintenance window.

For urgent civic complaints or restoration queries during the shutdown, residents can reach the AVVNL Central Toll-Free Helpline at 1912 or 1800-180-6565.
