SUMMARY

This position is responsible for designing the electrical power distribution network for the auxiliary equipment of our Gas Turbine projects. Our voltage levels are primarily in the low voltage side (600V and below) with implementation of equipment such as MCCs, 



ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES

• Contribute to proposals based on expressed customer needs.

• Responsible for assisting project leads in the electrical design process of the project.

• Utilize SmartPlant Electrical (SPEL) to design the electrical power distribution network as a 

database. Successfully develop single-line diagrams, panelboard schedules, electrical loads 

lists, motors lists, feeder schematics, master cable schedules, master terminations schedules, 

and other electrical documents best suited for extraction from a database type tool like SPEL 

under the supervision of the project lead. Experience with similar database driven software 

will also be considered.

• Utilize SmartPlant 3D (S3D) to design the electrical power distribution system under the 

supervision of the project lead to successfully develop power system plans, lighting plans, 

electrical room layouts, elevation drawings, conduit/cable tray arrangements, hazardous area 

classifications, and other electrical documents best suited for extraction from a database/3D 

type tool like S3D. Experience with similar database driven 3D software will also be 

considered.

• Assist project leads in performing calculations, sizing of equipment (i.e.: breakers, overload 

devices, etc.), sizing of cables/conduits/equipment spacing, illumination level calculations, 

maintaining bill of materials, and other design duties required by complexity of project.

• Prepare specifications primarily for electrical wiring equipment (i.e.cables, conduit/fitting/trays, termination boxes, lighting, etc.) and select qualified vendors. Interface 

with purchasing and vendors in the modification and approval of component parts and 

assemblies.

• Perform other such duties as may be required.

 

OTHER DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Comply with all safety policies, practices and procedures reporting all unsafe activities to 

Management and/or Human Resources

• Participate in proactive team efforts to achieve departmental and company goals.

• Contribute to building a positive team spirit.

• Communicate effectively with all levels of employees.

• Possess current, working knowledge of electrical design for industrial facilities; power plant 

experience is a plus.

• Interpret and design per code requirements from the authority having jurisdiction over a 

project’s electrical installation. Will need to be able to investigate, understand, and interpret 

when necessary the applicable electrical code for a project (NEC/NFPA 70, CEC, IEC, etc.). 

• Work closely with the electrical team in implementing smart-tool standards, policies, and 

procedures.

• Develop schedules, coordinate and manage the design for projects of all sizes with minimal 

supervision from the project lead.

• Communicate with clients regarding project status and be capable of addressing questions 

within the designer’s scope.

• Establish corrective actions to reduce nonconformance and improve quality.

• Meet schedule requirements for project engineering deliverables.

• Provide technical support during manufacturing and commissioning of equipment 

• Protect Company confidential information by not communicating, disclosing, or using for 

benefit of third parties and maintain the highest degree of honesty and integrity at all times.

• Lead junior engineers and interns and support their development.

• Travel - 5%.
