Design Engineer-Electrical(Solar)

1. Electrical System Design & Engineering

• Lead the detailed engineering design of electrical systems for Solar plant (Ground Mount +Rooftop) HV & EHV substations (ranging from 220 kV to 400 kV).
• Develop single line diagrams (SLD), protection schemes, relay coordination, and layouts for Solar plant substations and switchyards.
• Work on power system studies, including load flow analysis, short circuit analysis, and relay settings using ETAP, PSCAD, and MATLAB.
• Ensure technical compliance with IEEE, IEC, CEA, and PGCIL standards.

2. Load Flow & Short Circuit Analysis

• Perform load flow, short circuit, and transient stability studies to optimize the substation design.
• Implement harmonic analysis, insulation coordination, and earthing system designs for substations.
• Optimize transformer and switchgear sizing based on system loads and anticipated expansions.

3. Equipment Specification & Procurement

• Prepare technical specifications and data sheets for major electrical equipment:
• Power Transformers (up to 400 kV)
• Circuit Breakers (AIS/GIS)
• Isolators, CTs, PTs, and Lightning Arresters
• Control & Relay Panels
• HT/LT switchgears, cables, and UPS systems
• Evaluate vendor offers, conduct technical bid evaluations, and support procurement processes.

4. Coordination with Cross-Functional Teams

• Work closely with civil, mechanical, and electrical teams to ensure the successful execution of projects.
• Collaborate with clients and consultants to meet project requirements.
• Conduct technical discussions and reviews with stakeholders, including PGCIL, NTPC, SEBs, and DISCOMs.
• Protection & Control System Design
• Design protection schemes for power transformers, transmission lines, bus bars, and switchgears.
• Define settings for numerical relays (Siemens, ABB, Schneider, GE, etc.).
• Develop SCADA, automation, and communication protocols for efficient grid monitoring and control.
