• Prepare arc flash labels and hazard reports

Protection Device Coordination:

• Develop relay coordination for overcurrent, differential, and distance protection
• Generate TCC curves and relay setting calculations
• Coordinate with relay manufacturers (SEL, ABB, Schneider, Siemens)

Transient Stability Studies:

• Model power system dynamics in PSS/E or PSCAD
• Analyse fault ride-through, voltage recovery, and frequency response
• Support grid connection studies for generation projects

Insulation Coordination Studies:

• Perform insulation coordination per IEC 60071-1 and 60071-2
• Determine LIWV, SIWV, and protective margins for HV/EHV equipment
• Specify and validate surge arrester selection

Grid Code Compliance:

• Review projects against CEA Grid Code, IEGC, and state SLDC requirements
• Prepare compliance documentation and interconnection study packages

Client and Report Management:
