• Update Electrical Installation & Commissioning Management on system specific progress, risks, and quality – providing observation-based input to scope related progress and risks.

• Review contractor ITP and test procedures, and witness all test phases (FAT, SAT, SIT, OSAT, and OSIT) based on the Critical to Functionality (CtF) and Critical to Quality (CtQ) guidelines from the functional line department and project specific assessment.

• Supervise delivery of equipment, ensuring that all damages and missing equipment is recorded and addressed to the contactor. This includes familiarisation with shipping lists and reviewing equipment unloading Risk Assessment & Method Statements (RAMS)

• Supervise the contractors handling and installation of equipment during the outfitting and electrical installation, including pulling and termination of cables focusing on CtF and CtQ.

• On projects with multiple contractors directly reporting to client on site, coordinate the on-site cross contractor interfaces and collaboration.

• Supervise qualification (mechanical completion) of the installed equipment and cables (high voltage, low voltage, and communication cables).

• Execute Low Voltage and High Voltage Authorised Person (LV AP and HV AP) scope, involving establishing and maintaining electrical safety, lock out/tag out, and energisation checks.

• Support the PICOS, including substituting, in all matters related to safe substation management, including inductions, daily coordination, and safety drills.

• Execute inspections and tests relevant for the Test After Completion prior to asset handover to Generation.

• Provide lessons learned and improvement proposals, based on NCR’s, punches, and through using the processes and procedures supplied by the functional line department, enabling a continuous development of client’s contracts and the standard processes and procedures, ensuring client and the Electrical Installation & Commissioning Supervisor role always keep up with contemporary needs.

• Take location and task-based safety training (e.g. Global Wind Organisation (GWO) training, and local supervisor safety certifications), observe and intervene on site based on safety on site, and report to the client QHSE representative on site.
