Job Description
High-level purpose of the function.
Key Responsibilities
Overall areas of responsibility and activities
HV System Design : Lead the conceptual and detailed design of HV distribution networks, including overhead lines, underground cable routes, and utility interconnections (e.g., up to 33 kV or 152 kV as required).
Substation Expertise : Serve as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) for all aspects of GIS (Gas-Insulated Switchgear) substation design, specifying layouts, bay configurations, equipment ratings, and primary component integration.
Insulation & Grounding : Conduct advanced analysis and design for insulation coordination, transient overvoltage protection, and comprehensive substation grounding grid systems (including step/touch potential calculations).
Analysis & Studies : Perform rigorous power system studies using industry-standard software, focusing on dynamic stability, transient analysis, short-circuit contribution, and developing complex protection relay settings for HV infrastructure.
Procurement and Vendor Management : Develop detailed technical specifications for major GIS, power transformers, circuit breakers, and protection relays. Oversee and approve vendor documentation (Drawings, Type Test Reports, FAT/SAT procedures).
Safety & Compliance : Ensure all HV designs adhere strictly to relevant international standards ( IEC 62271, IEC 61936 ) and local regulatory requirements for safe operation, maintenance access, and construction (e.g., LOTO principles during maintenance phase).
Commissioning Support : Provide technical leadership during the Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT) for all GIS and HV primary equipment, verifying performance before final energisation.
