Electrical Engineer

Design Review & Technical Evaluation (Detailed Responsibilities)

• Review and verify electrical design documents

  including

  single-line diagrams (SLDs)

  ,

  schematic diagrams

  ,

  load schedules

  ,

  panel board layouts

  ,

  cable routing plans

  , and

  equipment layouts

  to ensure technical accuracy, completeness, and compliance with project requirements.

• Ensure that all design deliverables comply with applicable international and local standards

  such as

  IEC, IEEE, NEC/NFPA

  , and

  Indian Standards (IS)

  along with

  CEA Regulations

  ,

  IE Rules

  , and

  project-specific specifications

  . Evaluate conformity with safety, reliability, and operational performance criteria.

• Identify design gaps, inconsistencies, and constructability issues

  through technical evaluation of drawings and specifications. Coordinate with

  design consultants, EPC contractors, and client engineers

  to resolve discrepancies and issue timely clarifications (RFIs).

• Review and approve material submittals

  (switchgear, transformers, cables, panels, lighting fixtures, etc.) to ensure they meet design intent, project technical specifications, and standard requirements (IEC/IS). Verify vendor compliance documents, type test certificates, and performance data sheets.

• Examine and comment on shop drawings and method statements

  submitted by contractors to confirm they reflect the approved design intent and can be implemented safely and efficiently on site.

Site Execution & Supervision (Detailed Responsibilities)

• Supervise and monitor on-site electrical installation activities

  for

  power distribution systems (HT/LT panels, transformers, DG sets, UPS systems)

  ,

  lighting and small power

  ,

  earthing and lightning protection

  , and

  control and instrumentation systems

  to ensure alignment with approved drawings, technical specifications, and project standards.

• Verify all installation works

  including

  cable laying, glanding, termination, panel erection, equipment mounting

  , and

  wiring connections

  are carried out in accordance with

  IEC, IS, and project safety standards

  .

• Conduct daily and periodic site inspections

  to ensure workmanship, material quality, and installation techniques comply with

  QA/QC requirements

  and approved

  method statements

  .

• Review and approve installation checklists

  for major electrical equipment such as switchgear, transformers, motors, MCCs, VFDs, and lighting systems before energization.

• Monitor construction progress

  and compare with project schedules, identifying bottlenecks and coordinating with project planners to maintain target timelines.

• Coordinate effectively with multidisciplinary teams

  (civil, mechanical, instrumentation, HVAC, and fire protection) to resolve inter-discipline interface issues, such as conduit routing conflicts, equipment placement, and trench/cable tray coordination.

• Review and verify as-built drawings

  and ensure all modifications or field changes are properly documented and reflected in the final deliverables.

• Ensure materials received at site

  (cables, breakers, lighting fixtures, panels, etc.) are inspected, verified against approved submittals, and stored under proper conditions to maintain quality and traceability.

• Provide technical guidance

  to site supervisors, technicians, and contractors on electrical drawings, safety precautions, and installation methods.

• Assist in planning and execution of testing and commissioning activities

  , ensuring test reports (IR, continuity, insulation resistance, high-pot tests, etc.) meet standard requirements.

• Report daily progress, issues, and corrective actions

  to project management, highlighting potential risks and recommending mitigation measures.

• Provide technical support during design changes or value engineering

  to optimize system cost, efficiency, and maintainability without compromising safety or compliance.
