Electrical Surveyor

Pre-Installation Site Surveys:

• Visit sites to meticulously assess existing electrical infrastructure, power availability, and overall site conditions before any new electrical installations begin.

• Gather precise measurements, identify the best routes for cables and conduits, and determine requirements for switchgear, transformers, lighting, and other components.

• Evaluate site accessibility, logistical considerations, and potential electrical safety hazards.

• Prepare detailed survey reports, including photos, sketches, and recommendations for optimal electrical design.

2. Inspection and Quality Assurance:

• Regularly inspect ongoing electrical installation work to ensure it aligns with approved drawings, specifications, quality standards, and safety regulations.

• Verify the correct installation of wiring, conduits, cables, panels, distribution boards, earthing systems, and lighting fixtures.

• Perform visual checks, continuity tests, insulation resistance tests, earth resistance tests, and other critical electrical tests using specialized equipment.

• Identify and document any deviations, defects, or non-conformities, then recommend corrective actions.

3. Documentation and Reporting:

• Create comprehensive and accurate survey reports, inspection checklists, defect lists, and progress updates.

• Maintain detailed records of all measurements, observations, test results, and correspondence related to electrical surveys and inspections.

• as-built drawings

• Clearly present your findings and recommendations to project managers, clients, and other stakeholders.

4. Compliance and Safety:

• Ensure all electrical works fully comply with national and local electrical codes, safety regulations, and industry best practices.

• Actively promote and enforce a strong safety culture on-site, identifying and mitigating electrical hazards.

• Stay up-to-date with the latest changes in electrical standards, regulations, and technologies.

5. Collaboration and Coordination:

• Work closely with electrical engineers, project managers, contractors, and clients to ensure smooth project execution.

• Provide technical advice and guidance on electrical installation methods, materials, and potential issues.

• Participate in site meetings and discussions concerning the electrical aspects of projects.

6. Post-Installation / Operational Surveys (as required):

• Conduct surveys for existing electrical systems to assess their condition, efficiency, compliance, and identify needs for maintenance, upgrades, or fault diagnosis.

• Perform thermal imaging surveys to pinpoint hot spots and potential electrical failures.
