Electrical Wiring Technician

Position Summary:

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Electrical Wiring Technician to join our Company. The role primarily involves control panel wiring, machine wiring, field wiring, and integration of electrical systems used in automated industrial machinery.

This position is designed as a career development role. The selected candidate will undergo structured on-the-job training in industrial automation technologies, including PLC, HMI, and control systems, during the first year. Upon successful completion of one year of service and demonstrating the required technical competency, the individual will be promoted to PLC Programmer, taking on advanced automation responsibilities.

Detailed Responsibilities:

1. Electrical Wiring and Assembly

• Execute panel wiring, control wiring, and machine wiring according to design drawings, circuit diagrams, and electrical schematics.
• Assemble and mount electrical components such as PLCs, contactors, relays, MCBs, MCCBs, power supplies, sensors, solenoids, and drives (VFD/Servo) in control panels and machines.
• Perform crimping, termination, ferruling, cable routing, and labeling as per standard industrial wiring practices.
• Conduct continuity, insulation resistance, and high-voltage testing to ensure electrical safety and reliability.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and compliant wiring workspace following 5S and EHS (Environment, Health & Safety) guidelines.

2. Machine Automation and Integration

• Support the installation, integration, and commissioning of automated machines and industrial control systems at the factory and client sites.
• Collaborate with mechanical, pneumatic, and automation teams to ensure proper system interfacing.
• Assist in I/O mapping, signal testing, and loop checking during machine trials.
• Participate in troubleshooting of wiring, sensors, and control circuits during FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) and SAT (Site Acceptance Test).
• Ensure all electrical work complies with IEC and IS standards for industrial automation systems.

3. Documentation and Quality Compliance

• Maintain detailed records of wiring layouts, terminal drawings, cable schedules, and component lists.
• Support the preparation of as-built drawings and electrical BOM (Bill of Materials).
• Follow internal QA/QC procedures to ensure wiring accuracy and functionality.
• Report issues or discrepancies to senior engineers and contribute to root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives.

4. Learning and Development (Trainee Phase)

• Participate in structured technical training programs on PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, and industrial communication protocols (Modbus, Ethernet/IP, Profibus).
• Learn ladder logic programming, HMI screen development, and basic troubleshooting of PLC-based control systems.
• Gain exposure to motion control, pneumatic systems, and process automation.
• Work under the mentorship of senior automation engineers to understand machine logic design and system architecture.

Key Skills and Competencies:

• Strong knowledge of electrical circuits, control panels, and industrial wiring.
• Ability to read and interpret schematic, GA (general arrangement), and panel layout drawings.
• Basic understanding of PLC hardware (Siemens, Delta, Allen Bradley, Mitsubishi, etc.) and field instrumentation.
• Hands-on experience or knowledge of VFDs, sensors, relays, and actuators.
• Good analytical and troubleshooting skills with attention to detail.
• Effective communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment.
• Self-motivated, willing to learn, and adaptable to new technologies.

Career Progression Plan:

The selected candidate will begin their journey as an Electrical Wiring Technician, focusing on control panel wiring, machine assembly, and providing support in automation-related activities during the initial 12 months. During this period, the candidate will also undergo structured training in PLC and HMI programming to build a strong foundation in industrial automation.

Upon successful completion of one year and demonstrating satisfactory performance, the individual will advance to the role of Junior PLC Programmer. In this phase, the candidate will assist in PLC program modifications, HMI screen development, and on-site machine commissioning under the guidance of senior automation engineers.

After further skill development, evaluation, and successful completion of assigned automation projects, the candidate will be promoted to the position of PLC Programmer, taking full responsibility for PLC logic design, HMI development, troubleshooting, and complete automation project execution. This structured career path ensures continuous technical growth and long-term professional development within the organization.
