• Protection systems and grounding
• Review and approve engineering calculations, studies, and system designs.

Controls & Systems Integration

• Oversee integration of PLC-based control systems, automation, and instrumentation.
• Ensure seamless coordination between electrical infrastructure and mechanical systems.
• Guide development of control panels, I/O architectures, and control strategies.

Codes, Standards & Compliance

• Ensure all designs comply with:
• NFPA 70 (NEC)
• NFPA 70B (Electrical Maintenance)
• NFPA 70E (Arc Flash & Safety)
• Applicable UL standards
• Establish internal compliance processes and quality assurance reviews.
• Support development of arc flash studies, labeling programs, and safety documentation.

Project Execution & Delivery

• Partner with project managers to ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and within scope.
• Review project schedules, resource allocation, and engineering milestones.
• Serve as the escalation point for complex technical challenges and risk mitigation.
• Support commissioning, troubleshooting, and system startup activities when required.

Simulation & Analysis

• Ensure proper use of electrical modeling tools such as ETAP or SKM PowerTools.
• Oversee system studies including:
• Short circuit analysis
• Arc flash studies
• Protective device coordination
• Load flow modeling

Cross-Functional Coordination
