The Kabeli 132 kV corridor is an eastern Nepal branch network around the Soyak-Godak-Amarpur/Phidim area. It is represented as a branch corridor because the recovered NEA Kabeli IEE describes a bifurcated route rather than a single linear line.
Summary
The Kabeli / Godak-Soyak-Amarpur 132 kV corridor is a source-supported branch network in eastern Nepal. The page tracks the corridor as a bifurcated 132 kV system rather than a single forced line, based on the NEA Kabeli IEE route description.

Map Interpretation
The connected network keeps Kabeli as a branch system: a southern trunk up to Soyak, one arm toward Godak, and one arm toward Phidim/Amarpur. The branch ends are not artificially connected to one another.
This matters for reader trust. A single forced line would look cleaner, but it would misrepresent the project structure.
Limitations & Controversies
Public decision: default-visible, caveated.
The branch topology is source-supported and has no remaining endpoint gaps. The caveat is route precision: the current manual trace is still a document-grounded reconstruction, not a digitized alignment sheet.
The highest-value improvement is to digitize the branch geometry more carefully from the Kabeli IEE route figures while preserving the trunk, Godak branch, and Amarpur/Phidim branch as separate network features.
