The FESCO Sargodha Industrial Sub-Division is a specialized electricity distribution unit dedicated exclusively to serving the power needs of industrial and large commercial consumers in Sargodha District. Covering the Sargodha Industrial Estate, small-scale manufacturing clusters, and major commercial zones along arterial roads, this sub-division manages high-load connections that form the backbone of the district's industrial economy.
Industrial consumers in Sargodha span diverse sectors including flour milling, rice processing, textile manufacturing, citrus processing and cold storage, metal fabrication, and various light manufacturing industries. The sub-division operates 18 dedicated industrial feeders with enhanced infrastructure designed to handle the high power demands of manufacturing operations. Many industrial consumers operate on High Tension (HT) supply of 11kV, requiring specialized metering and safety equipment maintained by the sub-division.
The Industrial Sub-Division office provides specialized services tailored to business requirements, including load enhancement for expanding factories, sanctioned load verification for new machinery installation, power factor correction guidance, and consultation on tariff optimization. The office employs engineers and technical staff with expertise in industrial power systems, capable of addressing complex issues that go beyond routine residential service requirements.
Given the critical nature of industrial power supply, the sub-division maintains priority response protocols for fault rectification at manufacturing facilities. Extended power outages at factories result in significant economic losses, and the technical team is equipped to handle emergency repairs on industrial feeders and transformers. The office also coordinates with industrial associations on planned maintenance shutdowns to minimize production disruptions.
