Role Overview

Assistant Manager/Manager-Electrical Design

Key Roles & Responsibilities

1. Electrical Design & Engineering

Prepare and review electrical design deliverables: singleline diagrams (SLD), DC/AC layouts, cablesizing and routing, earthing/grounding plans, lightning protection, illumination & load calculations, etc.Perform electrical system calculations: load analysis; sizing of inverters/transformers/cables; protection coordination; voltagedrop, earthing and grounding design; and ensure compliance with applicable design standards / codes.Prepare Bills of Materials (BOM) / Quantities (BOQ) and technical specifications for electrical equipment and materials (switchgear, inverters/transformers, panels, cables, protection devices, earthing materials, etc.).Generate and issue detailed electrical drawings and documents required across project phases conceptual, tendering, detailed design, execution and asbuilt documentation.

2. Coordination & InterDisciplinary Interface

Coordinate with civil/structural, mechanical (if any), procurement, projectmanagement and siteexecution teams to ensure electrical design integrates seamlessly with other project disciplines (civil layout, mounting structures, gridtie or EBline interfacing, etc.).Liaise with vendors, suppliers, contractors for electrical equipment — clarify technical requirements, review vendor datasheets/submittals to ensure compliance with design specs; support vendor evaluation for electrical packages.Work with procurement and SCM to support procurement based on design — ensure material specs and requirements are clearly defined and communicated.

3. Documentation & Compliance

Maintain versioncontrolled design documents: SLDs, layout drawings, cable/earthing/grounding diagrams, datasheets, BOQs/BOMs, technical specifications, vendor submittals, change/revision records and asbuilt drawings.Ensure all designed outputs comply with electrical standards, gridcode/regulatory requirements (as applicable), and project specifications for solar EPC / gridconnected solar plants.Provide design inputs for tendering and proposals — scope definition, technical requirements, estimated quantities, and design feasibility as per site conditions.

4. Support During PreBid, Tender & Project Startup

Assist in prebid or tenderphase activities — support evaluation of technical feasibility, gridconnection compliance, equipment specification, site constraints, and overall electrical scope estimation.Help prepare RFQs / RFPs, technical bid documents for electrical scope; support evaluation of vendor/contractor proposals for technical compliance.

5. Execution Support & Site Coordination (if required)

Provide design clarifications and support to siteexecution team during installation — address queries related to drawings, cable layouts, earthing/grounding, protection layout, panel/inverter placement, switchgear, etc.Assist procurement/inspection for equipment/material validation ensuring delivered items match design specifications before installation.Support commissioning activities by providing required design documentation and assistance for acceptance tests, gridtie connections, and electrical compliance audits (as required).

6. Team Collaboration & Reporting

Work closely with senior electrical/design lead, project head, execution, procurement, civil/structural and other crossfunctional teams to deliver design outputs in a timely and integrated manner.Maintain clear communication, raise designrelated risks or deviations early, propose corrective actions or alternative designs to meet constraints or site conditions.Mentor or guide junior design engineers or draftsmen (if part of team) — support quality, standardization, and adherence to design protocols.
