Responsibilities

Own the site electrical safety program in accordance with NFPA 70E, including shock protection, arc-flash protection, energized electrical work permits, approach boundaries, and electrically safe work conditions
Establish and maintain lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures, switching orders, and live-dead-live verification practices for UPS, PDUs, RPPs, busway, switchgear, transformers, automatic transfer switches (ATS), generators, and battery energy storage systems
Lead arc-flash hazard analysis and incident energy studies (IEEE 1584), maintain equipment labeling, and define PPE categories, working distances, and restricted/limited approach boundaries for AC and DC systems
Qualify, train, and audit electrical workers as NFPA 70E Qualified Persons; develop and deliver electrical safety training for operators, technicians, contractors, and construction partners
Review and approve energized work, electrical switching, and commissioning procedures from a safety perspective; stop work when conditions do not meet electrically safe work practice requirements
Ensure proper grounding, bonding, equipotential bonding, and power quality monitoring/telemetry to prevent equipment damage and personnel injury
Validate ATS, generator, and UPS failover procedures for personnel safety during planned and unplanned transfers, including black-start, paralleling, and restoration sequences
Partner with design, construction, and commissioning teams to integrate electrical safety into new builds and expansions: one-line diagrams, protective device coordination, short-circuit studies, temporary power, and construction LOTO
Conduct structured risk assessments of electrical systems, including Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and electrical hazard assessments for medium- and low-voltage distribution, DC plants, and energy storage
Investigate electrical incidents, near misses, shock events, and arc-flash events; drive root-cause analysis and corrective actions
Monitor and mitigate electrical hazards associated with cooling failures, thermal runaway in energy storage, hot work near energized equipment, and extreme temperature/humidity conditions that degrade insulation, PPE, and equipment ratings
Establish safe operating limits and emergency response procedures for electrical events, including arc flash, shock, power loss, battery incidents, and fire involving electrical equipment
