Overview
The Electrical Design Engineer will play a key role in supporting various power generation and electrical projects across the UK. Working remotely, the engineer will focus on electrical studies and secondary design work, while collaborating with distribution network operators and equipment manufacturers. There will also be opportunities to engage with the integration of AI into engineering processes.
Responsibilities
- Conduct load flow, short-circuit, and protection coordination studies.
- Perform P28, P29, and G5 studies as required.
- Produce and review secondary electrical designs, schematics, and technical drawings.
- Coordinate with distribution network operators and switchgear suppliers.
- Support protection, control, and signalling systems throughout projects.
- Update technical drawings and prepare as-built documentation as necessary.
Requirements
- Minimum of 2-3 years of experience in electrical design or power systems engineering.
- Proven expertise in secondary electrical design, particularly with substations or grid connections.
- Strong knowledge of protection studies, load flow, and short-circuit calculations.
- Familiarity with UK electrical standards, including P28, P29, and G5.
- Proficient in software tools such as AutoCAD, EPLAN, or DIgSILENT PowerFactory.
- Ability to work independently and effectively coordinate with engineering teams.
- Experience working with UK distribution network operators is a plus.
- Interest in AI and automation within engineering workflows is desirable.
