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.
