Undertake primary plant sizing, rating and selection (transformers, switchgear, busbars, cables) in accordance with Client standards and Australian Standards.
Perform earthing, fault level,



voltage drop and equipment clearance studies to support primary design outputs.
Coordinate primary design interfaces with secondary systems, civil/structural and mains design disciplines to ensure a fully integrated substation solution.
Support outage planning, testing, commissioning, energisation and handover activities for primary plant.
Identify and manage technical risks relating to equipment integration, earthing and network performance.
Provide technical input into procurement, cost estimating and tender evaluation for primary equipment packages.
Conduct design verification, site inspections and non-conformance resolution to maintain quality and compliance.
Contribute to continuous improvement of primary design standards and lessons-learned processes.
