Role Overview
Electrical Maintenance Engineers keep the power systems running in industrial plants — HT/LT switchgear, transformers, motors, drives, and distribution systems. You’ll handle preventive maintenance, fault diagnosis, and emergency breakdowns. Electrical failures in a continuous process plant don’t just cause production loss — they create safety hazards. This role demands strong technical knowledge of industrial electrical systems and a disciplined approach to electrical safety and isolation procedures.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute preventive maintenance on HT/LT switchgear, transformers, motors, and VFDs
- Troubleshoot electrical faults and restore systems to service with minimal downtime
- Perform insulation resistance testing, contact resistance measurement, and relay testing
- Maintain electrical single line diagrams and equipment health records
- Coordinate with operations for electrical isolation and energisation procedures
- Supervise contract electricians during maintenance and shutdown activities
- Ensure compliance with IE Rules and client electrical safety standards
Required Qualifications & Certifications
- B.E./B.Tech or Diploma in Electrical Engineering
- 3–10 years of electrical maintenance experience in a process plant or power plant
- Knowledge of HT/LT switchgear, protection relays, transformers, and motor control centres
- Experience with preventive maintenance tools (megger, contact resistance meter, thermal camera)
- Familiarity with Indian Electricity Rules and hazardous area classification
- Valid electrical competency certificate (Supervisor/license) preferred
