Introduction 1.1 History of Electricity Supply in Malaysia Mains electricity is the general-purpose alternating-current (AC) electric power supply. In the US, electric power is referred to by several names including household power, household electricity, house current, powerline, domestic power, wall power, line power, AC power, city power, street power, and grid power. In many parts of Canada, it is called hydro, because much of the Canadian electrical generating capacity is hydroelectric. Electricity first made its appearance in Malaysia at the turn of the 20th century, and the earliest record of power generation can be traced back to a small mining town in Rawang, Selangor. Here, two enterprising individuals Loke Yew and Thamboosamy Pillai installed an electric generator in 1894 to operate their mines; they were the first to use electric pumps for mining in Malaya, and marked the great beginning of the story of electricity in Malaysia. In the same year, private supply for street lighting purposes was extended to Rawang town, and in 1895 the railway stations in Kuala Lumpur received its first electricity supply. In 1900, the Sempam Hydroelectric Power Station in Raub, built by the Raub Australian Gold Mining Company became the first power station in Malaysia. Until the mid nineteen twenties, most generating plants were small and used a variety of fuel including low grade coal, local wood, charcoal and important oil as well as water power. As the rapid increase in electricity demands continued to manifest; large scale planning, huge sums of capital from overseas and hiring of foreign technical experts became essential. Hence, the Central Electricity Board (CEB) was established and came into operation on 1 September 1949. The Board was to become heir to three major projects considered by the Electricity Department following its re-establishment in April 1946:  The Connaught Bridge Power Station,  The Cameron Highlands Hydroelectric Project &  The development of a National Grid CEB became owner to 34 power stations with a generation capacity of 39.88 MW, including a steam power station in Bangsar with a capacity of 26.5 MW, a hydroelectric power station at Ulu Langat with a capacity of 2.28 MW as well as various diesel affairs with a total capacity of 11.1 MW. CEB also became owner to both transmission and distribution systems above and below ground valued at close to thirty million dollars, as well as the impressive list of 45,495 consumers and staff of 2,466. The age of private generators has come to an end, and all walks of life continue to enjoy fair share of electricity. For this, we sincerely thank the government for recognizing the central role of the power industry in developing the nation's economy and social growth. In 1964, the second expatriate General Manager of CEB, J. Sharples retired, and Raja Zainal bin Raja Sulaiman became the first Malaysian appointed to the post. Soon, The Connaught Bridge Power Station became fully operational and the first phase of the Cameron Highland Hydroelectric Project was close to completion. In Selangor, the precursor of the National Grid was slowly taking shape, and the Bangsar Power Station was connected to the Connaught Bridge Power Station, with the line subsequently extended to Malacca. On 22 June 1965, Central Electricity Board (CEB) of the Federation of Malaya was renamed as the National Electricity Board of the States of Malaya (NEB). Committed to long term programme of growth and expansion backed by plans carefully crafted and laid down in the period of CEB, NEB is now firmly led by a Malaysian as the CEO. The National Grid was one of the plans in full motion. The National Grid or Grid Nasional in Malay is the primary electricity transmission network linking the electricity generation, transmission, distribution and consumption in Malaysia. Electricity generating plants are strategically located at Paka in Terengganu, Temengor, Kenering, Bersia and Batang Padang in Perak, Connaught Bridge, Kapar and Serdang in Selangor, Cameron Highlands in Pahang, Prai in Penang, Port Dickson in Negeri Sembilan, Pergau in Kelantan, Pasir Gudang in Johor and in Malacca. Keeping the nation's interest in mind, the government relentlessly pursued its ultimate objective and two pieces of legislation were passed to replace the existing Electricity Act, and to provide for the establishment of a new corporation – TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD (TNB), purposefully replacing the NEB (Successor Company Act). Datuk Hj. Ibak bin Abu Hussein became the last Deputy Chairman and General Manager of the NEB and the first Managing Director of TNB. On 1 September 1990, Prime Minister Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad officially proclaimed TNB as the heir and successor to NEB. TNB became a private company whollyowned by the government; on the same day, Tan Sri Dato Haji (Dr) Ani bin Arope was appointed Chairman. 2. Supply System in Malaysia The conveyance of electric power from a power station to consumers’ premises is known as electric supply system. An electric supply system consists of three principal components viz., the power station (generation system), the transmission lines and the distribution system. The electric supply system can be broadly classified into   2.1 d.c. or a.c. system overhead or underground system Power station (Generation System) Electricity generation is the process of generating electrical power from other sources of primary energy. The fundamental principles of electricity generation were discovered during the 1820s and early 1830s by the British scientist Michael Faraday. His basic method is still used today: electricity is generated by the movement of a loop of wire, or disc of copper between the poles of a magnet. For electric utilities, it is the first process in the delivery of electricity to consumers. The other processes, electricity transmission, distribution, and electrical power storage and recovery using pumped-storage methods are normally carried out by the electric power industry. Electricity is most often generated at a power station by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by chemical combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. Other energy sources include solar photovoltaic and geothermal power. One of the generation power systems is water turbine. The theory of operation of water turbine is simple. The flowing water will directed on to the blades of a turbine runner, creating a force on the blades. Since the runner is spinning, the force acts through a distance (force acting through a distance is the definition of work). In this way, energy is transferred from the water flow to the turbine Water turbines are divided into two groups; reaction turbines and impulse turbines. The precise shape of water turbine blades is a function of the supply pressure of water, and the type of impeller selected. 2.2 Transmission Lines Electric-power transmission is the bulk transfer of electrical energy, from generating power plants to electrical substations located near demand centers. This is distinct from the local wiring between high-voltage substations and customers, which is typically referred to as electric power distribution. Transmission lines, when interconnected with each other, become transmission networks. The combined transmission and distribution network is known as the "power grid" in the United States, or just "the grid". In the United Kingdom, the network is known as the "National Grid". In electronic engineering, a transmission line is a specialized cable or other structure designed to carry alternating current of radio frequency, that is, currents with a frequency high enough that their wave nature must be taken into account. Most transmission lines use high-voltage three-phase alternating current (AC), although single phase AC is sometimes used in railway electrification systems. High-voltage direct-current (HVDC) technology is used for greater efficiency in very long distances (typically hundreds of miles (kilometres)), or in submarine power cables (typically longer than 30 miles (50 km)). HVDC links are also used to stabilize against control problems in large power distribution networks where sudden new loads or blackouts in one part of a network can otherwise result in synchronization problems and cascading failures. 2.3 Distribution System Electricity distribution is the final stage in the delivery of electricity to end users. A distribution system's network carries electricity from the transmission system and delivers it to consumers. Typically, the network would include medium-voltage (2kV to 34.5kV) power lines, substations and pole-mounted transformers, low-voltage (less than 1 kV) distribution wiring and sometimes meters. Distribution networks are typically of two types, radial or interconnected. A radial network leaves the station and passes through the network area with no normal connection to any other supply. This is typical of long rural lines with isolated load areas. An interconnected network is generally found in more urban areas and will have multiple connections to other points of supply. These points of connection are normally open but allow various configurations by the operating utility by closing and opening switches. Operation of these switches may be by remote control from a control center or by a lineman. The benefit of the interconnected model is that in the event of a fault or required maintenance a small area of network can be isolated and the remainder kept on supply. Within these networks there may be a mix of overhead line construction utilizing traditional utility poles and wires and, increasingly, underground construction with cables and indoor or cabinet substations. However, underground distribution is significantly more expensive than overhead construction. In part to reduce this cost, underground power lines are sometimes co-located with other utility lines in what are called common utility ducts. Distribution feeders emanating from a substation are generally controlled by a circuit breaker which will open when a fault is detected. Automatic circuit reclosers may be installed to further segregate the feeder thus minimizing the impact of faults. 3. Main Power Supplier Our main power supply is Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB). Tenaga Nasional Berhad is the largest Electric utility company in Malaysia and also the largest power company in Southeast Asia with MYR 69.8 billion worth of assets. It serves over seven million customers throughout Peninsular Malaysia and also the eastern state of Sabah through Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd. TNB's core activities are in the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. Other activities include repairing, testing and maintaining power plants, providing engineering, procurement and construction services for power plants related products, assembling and manufacturing high voltage switchgears, coal mining and trading. Operations are carried out in Malaysia, Mauritius, Pakistan, India and Indonesia. Transmission Division Currently, the TNB Group has a complete power supply system, including the National Grid which is energised at 132, 275 and 500 kilovolt (kV), with its tallest electricity pylon in Malaysia and Southeast Asia being the Kerinchi Pylon located near Menara Telekom, Kerinchi, Kuala Lumpur. The National Grid is linked via 132 kV HVAC and 300 kV HVDC interconnection to Thailand and 230 kV cables to Singapore. TNB, through its subsidiaries, is also involved in the manufacturing of transformers, high voltage switchgears and cables, consultancy services, architectural, civil and electrical engineering works and services, repair and maintenance services and fuel undertakes research and development, property development, and project management services. Generation Division The Generation division owns and operates thermal assets and hydroelectric generation schemes in Peninsular Malaysia and one Independent Power Producer (IPP) operating in Pakistan. In the peninsula, it has a generation capacity of 11,296 MW. Among plans to expand its generation capacity include increasing hydroelectric generation by 2015[5] and commissioning the first nuclear power plant in Malaysia by 2025 if the government decides to include nuclear as an acceptable energy option. Distribution division The Distribution division conducts the distribution network operations and electricity retail operations of TNB. The division plans, constructs, operates, performs repairs and maintenance and manages the assets of the 33 kV, 22 kV, 11 kV, 6.6 kV and 415/240 volt in the Peninsular Malaysia distribution network.

It was established in 1982 by the Government of Sabah for the downstream operations of Sabah natural gas resources. The company owned and operated a 660,000tonne per year methanol plant, a 600,000-tonne per year sponge iron factory, and a 79 MW natural gas-fired power station, all commissioned in 1984 after the gas pipeline from the offshore gas fields became operational. The industries were supplied by natural gas from the Erb West and Samarang offshore fields. In the beginning of 1990s, due to financial difficulties, the company was put for privatization. In 1992, the methanol plant was sold to Petronas and operates today as Petronas Methanol (Labuan) Sdn Bhd. The power station was sold to Sabah Electricity. The sponge iron factory was bought by the affiliated companies of the today's Lion Group. The plant operates today as Antara Steel Mills Sdn Bhd. 5.3 YTL Power YTL Power, a subsidiary of YTL Corporation, generates and sell power as an independent power producer to Tenaga Nasional for uploading onto the National Grid, Malaysia. YTL Power is the builder, owner and operator of two power plants for a concession period of 21 years following Malaysia's privatisation policy. As the first independent power producer licensed in Malaysia, its power purchase agreement has the best terms offered, which include a take-or-pay clause; which requires Tenaga Nasional to pay a guaranteed amount whether the power is uploaded or not. In December 2010, YTL Power acquired 30% stake in Eesti Energia's oil shale development project in Jordan. The total generation capacity is 1,212 MW. YTL Power generates electricity mainly from two combined cycle power stations; using both steam turbine and gas turbine.

National Grid Although the year 1953 can be considered the birth year of the Grid System in Peninsular Malaysia, it was not until early 1970’s when the first 275kV transmission circuits were commissioned and started the rapid expansion of the Grid System. In the late 1980’s, to cater for fast demand growth and the need for a more secure Grid System, 500kV was chosen as the next transmission voltage level and in 1996 the first 500kV circuits were commissioned. National Grid originally taking shape in 1964 when the Bangsar Power Station was connected to the Connaught Bridge Power Station, with the line subsequently extended to Malacca. In 1965, a plan was set to connect the electricity generating plants that were spread out all over the country. Plants identified to be linked were located at Paka in Terengganu, Temenggor, Kenering, Bersia and Batang Padang in Perak, Connaught Bridge, Kapar and Serdang in Selangor, Cameron Highlands in Pahang, Perai in Penang, Port Dickson in Negeri Sembilan, Pergau in Kelantan, Pasir Gudang in Johor and in Malacca. The central area network with Connaught Bridge Power Station in Klang was the precursor of the energy grid; it also tapped into the Cameron Highlands Hydro scheme from the Sultan Yusuf Power Station, and was extended into a western network. Late in the 1980s, the loop was finally complete with the placement of Kota Bharu within the grid. The Grid System is also interconnected with power systems of Thailand in the North and Singapore in the South and both were first established in the 1980’s. The interconnection with Thailand has been upgraded since 1998 from a 100MW AC Interconnection to 300MW HVDC Interconnection that allows rapid control of power and energy transactions between two power systems. Although the energy transaction through the 250MW AC Interconnection with Singapore has always been set to zero, the interconnection has proven to be of benefit to both power systems in times of emergencies. 6.1 TYPE OF NATIONAL GRID’S TRANSMISSION SYSTEM Lines Description Length 500 kV 522 km 275 kV The single largest transmission system to be ever developed in Malaysia. the backbone of the transmission system in Peninsula Malaysia 73 km 132 kV 33 kV POWER GENERATION Power generation capacity connected to the Malaysian National Grid is 19,023 megawatt, with a maximum demand of 13,340 megawatt as of July 2007 according to Suruhanjaya Tenaga. The generation fuel mix is 62.6% gas, 20.9% coal, 9.5% hydro and 7% from other forms of fuel. DISTRIBUTION LEVEL Distribution lines of 33 kV, 22 kV, 11 kV, 6.6 kV and 400/230 volt in the Malaysia distribution network connect to the National Grid via transmission substations where voltages are stepped down by transformers. MALAYSIA’S GRID SYSTEM 7. Electricity Tariff Electricity pricing (sometimes referred to as electricity tariff or the price of electricity) varies widely from country to country, and may vary significantly from locality to locality within a particular country. There are many reasons that account for these differences in price. The price of power generation depends largely on the type and market price of the fuel used, government subsidies, government and industry regulation, and even local weather patterns. 7.1 Commercial TARIFF CATEGORY 1.

Service Quality This section covers the performance of customer services of TNB, SESB and NUR, result of the surveys on customer satisfaction and statistics of complaints received by the Commission. Annual Performance Report on Customer Services Under the license conditions, TNB, SESB and NUR are required to submit annual reports on performance of customer services to the Energy Commission. These reports cover 15 types of services. The performance of the three utilities for the last few years are as shown in Appendix 1, II and III. Based on the reports submitted by TNB, SESB and NUR, it can be seen that the overall performance in customer services of the utilities is improving. Complaints Received by the Energy Commission A total of 201 complaints were received by the Energy Commission in the year 2004. Most of the complaints were received through the Commission's regional offices and the website. Table 14 shows the number and types of complaints received in the year 2003 and 2004. Various efforts were taken by the Energy Commission to resolve the complaints such as investigation into the complaints, having meetings with the relevant parties and issuing directives to the utilities etc. Table : Number and Types of Complaints Received by the Energy Commission in the Year 2003 and 2004 Survey On Customer Satisfaction Level In the year 2004, a customer survey was carried by Energy Commission on the satisfaction level of the services provided by TNB. NUR Distribution Sdn Bhd had also conducted a similar survey in KHTP to gauge the satisfaction level of its customers. Customer Satisfaction Level of TNB The survey was carried out for about 6 month from July to December 2004 and a total of 1,065 responses were received. Of the total responses received, 512 responses were from domestic customers while 553 responses were from industrial/commercial customers. The results of the survey is as shown in Table 16. Table : Percentage of Customers Satisfied with the Services of TNB Customer Satisfaction Level of NUR Distribution Sdn. Bhd. NUR Distribution Sdn. Bhd. had conducted the survey between 11th March and 15th April 2004 by distributing the survey forms to its industrial, commercial and domestic customers. A total of 153 responses were received out of 1,501 survey forms distributed. The number of response from each category of customers are as shown in Table 17. Table : Number of Responses Received by NUR Distribution Sdn. Bhd. in the year 2004 9. Power Quality Power Quality is defined as "the availability of pure voltage sinusoidal waveform at delivery point". Power Quality is becoming more important as electrical equipments are increasingly used in the industrial plant. Besides being sensitive to short voltage fluctuation, this equipment also produce harmonic which can degrade the power quality in the power system. Incompatibility between power supply and the industrial equipment can cause maloperation of customer equipment or degradation in the quality of industrial product. Monetary losses due to power quality problem can be as high as outage problem. How does it affect you Loads or customer's equipment determine the appropriate level of power quality. Different equipment requires different level of power quality. Power Quality problem is "Any problem manifested in voltage, current or frequency deviations that result in the failure or misoperation of any electrical equipment and installation". It can originate internally from customer own electrical system and externally from utility power system or other customers within the vicinity or due to natural causes. Major power quality problems are related to voltage dips (or voltage sag), transients and harmonics. Addressing equipment operational compatibility The customer is responsible to ensure that its equipment will perform its function duly in an electrical environment. This can be achieved via taking step to ensure all the power quality parameters (or Electromagnetic Compatibility) are incorporated in the equipment specification and design. On the other hand, the utility is responsible in ensuring acceptable level of reliability and manage power quality in the electrical environment so that it will not be degraded. How to request for higher level of Power Quality The request for higher level of Power Quality should be forwarded during initial supply application as it will be incorporated into the overall power system design. The extra cost of providing such higher level of power quality shall be borne by the customer. How to handle Power Quality issues Power Quality problem occurs in every power system around the world. International standard bodies e.g. IEEE (US), EEE (UK) and IEC (Europe) are producing documents on power quality guidelines and standards as reference to the power utilities, equipment manufacturers and equipment users. The best way to avoid power quality problem is by ensuring all equipments to be installed are compatible with power quality in the power system. This can be achieved by procuring equipment with proper technical specifications that incorporate power quality performance of its operating electrical environment. Background power quality survey should be done in order to obtain better information on the existing power quality parameters. Recommended steps to troubleshoot Power Quality issues Step1: Record the dates & times of the disturbance. Take voltage measurement (if necessary, for suspected under/overvoltage cases). Step2: Check when the problem normally occurs i.e. at certain times of a day or at random. Step3: Identify components that are frequently affected. Step4: Refer to TNB for data correlation to identify the types/sources/causes of the disturbances. Provide voltage measurement (if available). Step5(a): If the types/sources/causes are unknown, install power quality monitoring equipment. Diagnose the new data recorded. Step5(b): If the types/sources/causes originated from TNB’s system, TNB will implement mitigation measures to minimize the occurrence of the same problem again. Some of the problems may mitigated by rearranging the supply reticulation or by improving its protection philosophy. Step6: If the types/sources/causes are known, discuss with equipment manufacturers for minimizing the emission of the disturbances or improve the immunity of the equipment. Step7: Implement mitigation measures. 10. Conclusion Malaysia enjoys ample electricity supply. The national utility company, Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), supplies power to Peninsular Malaysia, while in East Malaysia, the Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd (SESB) and the Sarawak Electricity Supply Corporation (SESCO) provide power to the States of Sabah and Sarawak respectively. Transmission voltages are at 500 kV, 275 kV and 132 kV while distribution voltages are 33 kV, 22 kV, 11 kV and 415/240 volts. TNB also offers electricity packaged under the thermal generation assets and hydrogenerated schemes for the benefit of certain industries that require multiple forms of energy for their processes. Power generation capacity connected to the Malaysian National Grid is 19,023 megawatt, with a maximum demand of 13,340 megawatt as of July 2007 according to Suruhanjaya Tenaga. The generation fuel mix is 62.6% gas, 20.9% coal, 9.5% hydro and 7% from other forms of fuel. 11.
