On February 18, 2016, 67 electrical engineering students from the Lokmanya Tilak College of Engineering, Koparkhairane, Navi Mumbai, visited TPSDI-Shahad for an industrial visit. The students toured the TPSDI-Shahad facility and had a close view of the transmission and distribution systems. The students were also shown the photovoltaic solar installation and saw a demonstration of cable jointing. The students were also shown demos of other equipment used in the power industry.
The visit followed a seminar on Changing Business Scenario in the Power Sector conducted by TPSDI's Mr. C.G.H. Aranha. After his seminar the college expressed interest in visiting TPSDI-Shahad so that the final year electrical engineering students would have real life experience of the equipment and systems used in the power sector.
The students found the visit to be highly educational and useful. The college has expressed its intent to send the students to TPSDI-Shahad for a longer stint at TPSDI-Shahad.
