Description:

· We are seeking a Commissioning Technician to support onsite commissioning and functional testing of power distribution and electrical control systems at customer facilities.

· This position is 100% onsite and will focus heavily on testing PLC- and protection relay-based Auto Throw Over (ATO) schemes.

· The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience working within power distribution environments and a strong understanding of switchgear, PLC controls, protection relays, and electrical troubleshooting.

· Candidates may come from either an engineering or technician background, provided they have practical field experience commissioning and testing electrical control systems.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

· On a day-to-day basis, this individual will perform onsite commissioning and functional testing of power distribution control systems.

· They will load programs into Modicon M340/M580 PLCs and Vijeo HMIs, perform input/output checks, and execute functional testing to verify that equipment operates according to the required sequence of operations.

· The individual will test Auto Throw Over schemes controlled by PLCs or protection relays and troubleshoot issues such as wiring errors, incorrect signals, or system functionality problems discovered during commissioning.

· They will also load setting files into protection relays and perform protective-function testing using secondary injection test equipment.

· The role requires someone comfortable working directly with switchgear, PLCs, protection relays, and electrical power distribution equipment in a customer-site environment.

Must-Haves:

· 3+ years of relevant experience in commissioning, electrical controls, power systems, or power distribution.

· Hands-on power distribution experience, including an understanding of electrical distribution systems and their operation.

· Strong understanding of switchgear and how switchgear interfaces with PLCs, protection relays, and control systems.

· Hands-on PLC experience, preferably with Modicon M340 and/or M580 PLCs.

· Experience with protection relays, including loading relay settings and/or performing protective-function testing.

· Commissioning and troubleshooting experience, including I/O checks, functional/sequence-of-operation testing, and diagnosing wiring or control-system issues in the field.

Plusses

· Experience commissioning or testing Auto Throw Over (ATO) / automatic transfer schemes.

· Experience with Easergy P5/P7 or SEL protection relays, including secondary injection testing.

· Experience with Vijeo HMI software and loading or commissioning HMI applications.

Qualifications:

· Work in Energy/Power distribution

· Good understanding of Switchgear

Experience with protection relays & PLC

· Familiarity with ATO application

Job Duties/Description:
