• Strong working knowledge of protective relaying principles, including overcurrent, differential, distance, and generator protection schemes, and the ability to develop and review relay coordination studies and time-current curves, required.

• Understanding of generator ratings, capability curves, excitation systems, and synchronization, and their relevance to NERC/NPCC/NYSRC reliability standards and compliance requirements, required.

• Proficiency with power system analysis software (e.g., ETAP, SKM, EasyPower, or equivalent) for modeling, simulation, and coordination, required.

• Working knowledge of applicable codes and standards: NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE (C37 series, 80, 141, 242, 399, 551), ANSI, and NERC reliability standards applicable to generating stations, required.

• Experience specifying and evaluating testing of power equipment: transformers (DGA, HiPot, turns ratio, winding resistance), breakers, surge arresters, CTs/PTs, and protective relays, required.

• Understanding of grounding system design, ground fault protection, and step-and-touch potential analysis, required.

• Demonstrated experience managing project budgets, schedules, and full project lifecycle activities in a utility or heavy industrial environment, required.

• Experience with cross-discipline drawing verification and peer review processes; ability to reconcile information across multiple drawing sets (e.g., electrical, instrumentation, mechanical) to ensure field accuracy, required.

• Experience with purchase specification development and vendor management for major electrical equipment (transformers, switchgear, generators, protective relays), preferred.

• Direct experience supporting NERC compliance activities, including generator verification testing (MOD-025), relay-to-capability coordination (PRC-019), or reliability standards documentation, preferred.

• Experience with medium-voltage switchgear design, specification, and commissioning (5 kV, 15 kV, or 27 kV class), preferred.

• Familiarity with battery systems, DC distribution, UPS design, and emergency power supply systems in generating stations, preferred.
