Senior Technical Lead, Generator Excitation Systems
Lead the engineering and delivery of Emerson’s high-current static generator excitation systems, from electrical design and testing through commissioning and customer handover. The role also coordinates with project, manufacturing, quality, supplier, field service, and customer teams.
Opis
- Lead engineering and delivery of 5,000 A to 10,000 A static generator excitation systems through testing, commissioning, and handover.
- Assess customer specifications, generator data, field forcing needs, protection philosophy, grid code expectations, and project scope.
- Select and size system components, including transformers, rectifier bridges, thyristors or diodes, protection devices, DC bus bars, cooling systems, controllers, I/O, and auxiliary supplies.
- Create and review schematics, wiring documents, cabinet layouts, bills of materials, cable schedules, terminal plans, and system architecture documents.
- Design high-current bus work and check thermal, short-circuit, insulation, ventilation, accessibility, and manufacturing requirements.
- Define and verify AVR/FCR functions, voltage and reactive power control, limiters, protection logic, redundancy, trip interfaces, alarms, and DCS/SCADA connections.
- Implement or review control logic based on SAMA diagrams, functional descriptions, approved narratives, and generator operating needs.
- Prepare and review engineering deliverables, test procedures, compliance statements, deviation lists, risk registers, commissioning procedures, troubleshooting guides, and customer documents.
- Coordinate work with project management, manufacturing, quality, procurement, suppliers, panel builders, software engineers, field service teams, and customers.
- Support manufacturing and quality checks, factory acceptance test readiness, and resolution of nonconformances.
- Configure and integrate Modbus, OPC, IEC 61850, DNP3, Ethernet networks, and plant automation interfaces.
- Ensure compliance with IEEE, IEC, NEC, ISO, HSE, cybersecurity, customer, and regional grid code requirements.
- Develop site execution and commissioning plans.
- Guide site teams through installation, panel power-up, redundancy and I/O checks, loop and device checks, and system energization.
- Carry out or support commissioning, control checks, protection and interface testing, and generator performance validation.
- Diagnose issues with excitation controllers, power bridges, firing circuits, field flashing, cooling systems, communications, protection devices, and auxiliary systems.
- Resolve installation and wiring deviations, site constraints, and commissioning punch-list items.
- Update logic, graphics, databases, parameters, and test configurations as needed.
- Produce customer commissioning reports, test records, issue logs, and handover documents.
Zahteve
- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering, power engineering, control and instrumentation, or a related field.
- Eight to sixteen years of experience with generator excitation systems, static excitation equipment, power electronics, electrical panel engineering, or power generation control systems.
- Practical experience with medium- to high-current static excitation systems, ideally in the 5,000 A to 10,000 A field current range.
- Strong knowledge of excitation transformers, rectifier bridges, thyristors or diodes, fuses, breakers, DC bus bars, field flashing, de-excitation, crowbar protection, cooling, controllers, I/O, and auxiliary supplies.
- Ability to design, review, and troubleshoot electrical schematics, single-line and three-line diagrams, wiring and interconnection drawings, cabinet layouts, terminal plans, bills of materials, and cable schedules.
- Proficiency with AutoCAD or EPlan.
- Working knowledge of high-current bus work, thermal performance, short-circuit withstand, creepage, clearance, insulation coordination, ventilation, accessibility, and manufacturing constraints.
- Good understanding of AVR/FCR operation, generator voltage and reactive power control, field forcing, limiters, protection functions, redundancy, trip interfaces, alarms, and DCS/SCADA integration.
- Working knowledge of MATLAB and PSS/E.
- Experience preparing or reviewing engineering deliverables, compliance statements, test procedures, FAT/SAT documentation, commissioning procedures, troubleshooting records, and customer handover documents.
- Knowledge of manufacturing quality checks for high-current excitation equipment.
- Ability to coordinate with project management, manufacturing, quality, procurement, vendors, panel builders, software engineers, field service teams, and customers.
- Familiarity with IEEE, IEC, NEC, ISO, HSE, cybersecurity, and regional grid code requirements.
