  • Review equipment manufacturers’ proposals and liaise with equipment manufacturers to ensure equipment suitability is in line with the proposed design.
  • Production of equipment schedules in line with relevant IEC, DNO, ENA, IDNO and client based specifications.
  • Development and review of single line diagrams, P&C block diagrams, & connection diagrams.
  • Production of AC and DC schematic drawings, control and protection, cable block diagrams, SCADA and multicore cable and termination schedules
