- Conduct detailed inspections on wiring terminations, cable routing, torque requirements, labeling, grounding, conduits, and enclosure integrity.
- Review and verify that installation meets NEC, IEEE, UL 9540/9540A, relevant utility standards, and project-specific QA/QC criteria.
Documentation & Reporting
- Maintain thorough inspection reports, punch lists, redlines, and photographic documentation.
- Track and verify corrective actions, ensuring issues are closed prior to energization or commissioning handoff.
- Support QA Manager in maintaining project-level Quality Plans and documentation control.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Work with construction teams, commissioning engineers, EPC partners, and OEM representatives to resolve field quality issues.
- Communicate findings clearly and professionally across disciplines, escalating issues when required.
- Support readiness reviews, quality walkdowns, and pre-energization verification activities.
