Based on the value 
of 
specific speed obtained pelton turbine is selected with an 
overall efficiency of66.2%. The power station commisioned 
in 
1963, the efficiency 
is 
low 
and  installation requires  refurbication which  may  include 
complete 
replacement 
of 
buckets, bearings and other components.
