Generate engineering cost and man-hour estimates, as well as schedules.
Create detailed engineering drawings for Extra High Voltage (EHV) projects, covering both Air Insulated Substations (AIS) and Gas Insulated Substations (GIS), ranging from 11kV up to 400kV (with a particular emphasis on 132kV voltages and above)
Develop designs to support detailed engineering, such as Land Utilisation Plan, Elevations, Above and Below Grade Conduit layouts, Grounding layout & it's connection details, Lighting and Lightning protection with respective details, Bill of Materials, CDM, MEWP layouts and Design Calculations.
Possess knowledge of Busbar sizing, Sag Tension, and Short Circuit (strung bus and equipment bus) force calculations.
Facilitate coordination of design activities across various departments, including Civil/Structural, Networks, and Transmission Line. Conduct design reviews, participate in virtual meetings, and collaborate closely with clients.
Coordinate with team members and monitor project schedules, ensuring submissions meet high-quality standards.
Produce comprehensive electrical substation design packages that comply with the required client technical standards or IEC/IEEE/NGTS.
Undertake consultancy role on FEED stage projects, including production of technical reports and presentations.
Maintain compliance to CDM Regulations and all other legal and regulatory requirements associated with the nature of substation and electrical system design.
Collaborate with WSP UK office on design activities.
Provide guidance and mentorship to less experienced team members.
Develop and enhance processes, tools, and potentially implement new technologies into the design process.
