:Atlas Transformers India Limited (Por,GIDC)
Reports To
: Senior Electrical Design Engineer / Design Manager / Technical Head
Industry
: Transformer Manufacturing – Power & Distribution
Job Summary
The Trainee Electrical Design Engineer will assist in the electrical design and development of power and distribution transformers under the guidance of senior engineers. This entry-level role is ideal for recent engineering graduates looking to build a career in transformer design. The trainee will gain hands-on experience with electrical calculations, design documentation, and technical standards, while contributing to ongoing design projects. The position offers a learning platform to understand transformer technology, design procedures, and cross-functional coordination essential in the manufacturing environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Learning and Development:
- Undergo structured training on transformer fundamentals, electrical design principles, and relevant international standards (IEC, IS, IEEE, ANSI).
- Learn about the different types of transformers (oil-immersed, dry-type, distribution, power transformers) and their design characteristics.
- Participate in on-the-job training covering design calculation tools, software, and design workflows.
- Support Electrical Design Activities:
- Assist in preparing basic electrical design calculations, such as:
- Core selection and flux density
- Load and no-load loss estimation
- Impedance, temperature rise, and insulation level
- Winding configurations (LV/HV), turns, and conductor sizing
- Support the creation and update of design documents such as:
- Electrical design sheets
- Guaranteed Technical Particulars (GTP)
- Design approval drawings and wiring diagrams
- Coordination with Teams:
- Work closely with mechanical design engineers to understand the interface between electrical and mechanical designs.
- Support communication with the production, winding, and testing departments for design clarification and follow-ups.
- Collaborate with senior designers and team leaders to meet internal design deadlines and quality requirements.
- Documentation and Reporting:
- Maintain accurate records of design activities, learning progress, and calculation files.
- Assist in the preparation of internal technical reports, comparison sheets, and data summaries.
- Update and maintain BOM (Bill of Materials) for assigned design tasks under supervision.
- Standard Compliance:
- Learn and gradually apply relevant technical standards such as IEC 60076, IS 2026, and IEEE C57 in design practices.
- Support the preparation of design documentation required for audits, client submissions, and certifications.
- Software Tools and Design Systems:
- Gain working knowledge of design tools/software such as AutoCAD Electrical, MS Excel (for calculations), MATLAB/Simulink (for simulations), and ERP systems (like SAP/Oracle, if applicable).
- Assist in updating standard design templates and macros under guidance.
Required Qualifications
- Education:
- B.E. / B.Tech in Electrical Engineering or Power Systems (recent graduate or final semester)
