What does the day look like?
Work typically follows a 38-to-40-hour office or hybrid schedule. Around 20% to 30% of the day is spent on active schematic design, load calculations, short-circuit current analysis, and simulations using software such as AutoCAD Electrical, Revit MEP, ETAP, SKM Power*Tools, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, EPLAN Electric P8, DIALux, or MATLAB/Simulink.
About 50% to 60% of your time involves documentation, engineering change notices (ECNs), vendor quote reviews, checking compliance against NEC/NFPA 70, IEC, or BS 7671 standards, and cross-discipline coordination meetings. The remaining 15% to 20% covers site walk-throughs, conducting Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and Site Acceptance Tests (SAT), and troubleshooting. Commissioning and substation energisation regularly require planned night shifts and weekend on-call duty.
