  • Prepare, review, and approve engineering deliverables including:
  • Single-line diagrams (SLDs)
  • Load lists and schedules
  • Cable routing/layouts
  • Lighting, grounding, and earthing systems
  • Power system studies (load flow, short circuit, motor starting, arc flash)
  • Specify electrical equipment such as transformers, switchgear, MCCs, UPS, motors, VFDs, and generators.
  • Ensure compliance with applicable codes and standards (IEC, NEC, IEEE, API, ATEX,NEMA, ISO).
  • Participate in all project phases (FEED, EPC, commissioning, startup).
