This code is primarily for quick mapping and sorting of the asset element. The indexing scheme shall be tightly coupled with the GIS system to give data with reference to geographical location.

4.6.8 The bidder shall use Personal Digital Assistants (PDA) or Hand Held Computers (HHC) for Consumer indexing. The important activities of Customer indexing are listed below:

Surveyor shall walk along with the line and identify the new/shifted Customers to whom supply is released from each pole / service pillar

The application software loaded in the PDA or HHC should immediately validate whether the Customer Number / the pole number entered by the surveyor is valid. This validation should be done automatically to avoid errors.

The HPSEBL shall supply DT wise list of added/shifted Consumers.

The indexing has to be continued in such a way by which it would be possible to relate the following:
