**A Snapshot of Your Day (position overview)**8:30 AM: Begin working on the main one-line and station auxiliary one-line diagrams for a new substation project.
Use specialized software to draft and ensure that all components are correctly represented.10:00 AM: Attend internal project team meeting to discuss the general arrangement, layout, and elevation drawings for the substation.
Share progress and address any design concerns.11:00 AM: Perform calculations for grounding and cable ampacity to ensure the substation meets safety and performance standards.
Document the results and integrate them into the project's overall design.1:00 PM: Review manufacturer documentation for equipment specifications to verify compatibility with the project's requirements.
Make notes on any discrepancies that need further investigation.2:00 PM: Support the 3D design team by providing electrical engineering input for a proposal.
This includes reviewing the 3D models and suggesting improvements or changes based on electrical design principles.4:30 PM: Update the Project Manager on the day's progress, highlighting any potential delays or risks.
Discuss solutions to mitigate any issues that could impact the project timeline.5:00 PM: Wrap up and head home, or prepare for any necessary travel the next day.
