The HV Project Engineer should have knowledge of most aspects of MV/HV electrical engineering – as an example, while not conducting the work, the individual should be able to review and comment on any of the below with minimal support from other engineering staff:

 

·       HV Transmission and Substation SLD/Layouts

·       Ampacity, short circuit, and protection coordination studies

·       Technical studies such as harmonics, transients, Ampacity, Short Circuit, Load Flow, Grounding, and any other study to the HV and MV field 

 

The ability to assume responsibility, interface, and coordinate with others is required as portions of the engineering effort will be subcontracted out which is managed by the HV Engineering PM.

 

ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES – HV SUBSTATION AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS:
