- Review equipment and tool electrical requirements, including power supply, voltage, current, isolation, grounding/earthing and connection requirements.
- Develop and coordinate electrical layouts, single-line diagrams, power distribution drawings, cable schedules, termination details and other construction drawings.
- Determine and coordinate electrical power tapping points and ensure adequate power availability for new and existing tools.
- Coordinate cable routing, cable tray/containment requirements, cable sizing, cable pulling and termination requirements.
- Review customer and tool vendor drawings and identify electrical interfaces and installation requirements prior to site execution.
- Ensure electrical designs and installation details comply with project specifications, applicable codes, standards and customer requirements.
Tool Installation & Hook-Up Coordination
- Coordinate with customers, tool owners, equipment vendors and contractors on tool installation and electrical hook-up requirements.
- Attend tool installation planning and coordination meetings with customers and relevant contractors.
- Coordinate electrical hook-up activities from the designated power source to the tool, including power tapping, isolation, cable routing, cable installation, termination, grounding and testing.
- Coordinate electrical interfaces between the tool, facility infrastructure and other contractors to ensure that installation requirements are clearly defined before work commences.
- Review site conditions and coordinate with contractors to ensure that electrical works are properly sequenced with tool delivery, positioning, mechanical installation and other services.
- Coordinate with other disciplines such as mechanical, process, HVAC, specialty gas, chemical and controls teams where their works interface with tool installation.
Customer& Contractor Coordination
- Act as the key electrical coordination point between the customer, tool vendors, main contractors and electrical subcontractors.
- Conduct regular coordination meetings with electrical subcontractors and other relevant contractors to review work progress, upcoming activities, site constraints and outstanding issues.
- Coordinate work schedules and ensure electrical hook-up activities are completed in line with the overall tool installation and project schedule.
- Monitor subcontractor progress and follow up on outstanding works, technical issues and corrective actions.
- Resolve site coordination issues and escalate technical matters to the Project Manager or Engineering team when required.
- Liaise with customers to obtain approvals, clarify requirements and coordinate access, work permits, shutdowns and installation schedules.
Site Supervision, Testing & Handover
- Conduct site inspections to verify that electrical installation works are carried out in accordance with approved drawings and project requirements.
- Check electrical installation quality, workmanship, cable routing, labelling, termination, grounding and equipment connections.
- Coordinate electrical testing and commissioning activities, including insulation resistance, continuity, grounding and other applicable tests.
- Identify and coordinate rectification of installation defects and punch-list items.
- Maintain accurate records of installation progress, inspection results, testing documentation and as-built information.
- Support final inspection, customer acceptance and project handover
