  •  Strategically implement RTU devices and advanced automation strategies to enhance monitoring, control, and protection functions within substations, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
  •  Apply deep, comprehensive expertise across all critical levels of substation automation: Process Level, Bay Level, and Control Level.

Technical Engineering & Integration
  •  Authoritatively configure and integrate Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs), Remote Terminal Units (RTUs), and Gateways to establish robust remote monitoring and control capabilities across the grid.
  •  Design, configure, and meticulously solve advanced communication networks using industry-standard protocols such as IEC 61850, IEC60870-5-101/103/104, DNP3, OPC, and Modbus TCP/IP.
  •  Guarantee seamless and efficient data exchange and interoperability between various substation components and systems, fostering a cohesive and responsive infrastructure.
  •  Conduct precise I/O mapping based on scheme drawings and expertly solve complex database issues within RTU-based systems, ensuring data integrity and accuracy.
  •  Develop and maintain standardized parameterization procedures for substation automation equipment to optimize performance, ensure interoperability, and streamline future deployments.

Documentation, Testing & Quality Assurance
  •  Prepare, review, and secure approval for critical engineering documents, including Functional Design Specifications (FDS), System Architecture, Signal Lists, Bills of Materials, and detailed General Arrangements.
  •  Oversee the development and meticulous execution of comprehensive testing and commissioning plans, including Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), Site Acceptance Tests (SAT), detailed Test Reports, and precise project schedules.
  •  Implement meticulous Point-to-Point (P2P) data testing for telemetry systems (RTU) integrated with SCADA systems, verifying seamless communication and data flow.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

  • Work closely and effectively with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth project delivery, achieve high-quality customer outcomes, and foster an environment of continuous improvement.
  • Proactively monitor the industry landscape, research, and integrate emerging technologies and standard processes to keep our solutions pioneering and future-proof.
