3. Select appropriate
   electrical components such as PLCs, HMIs, sensors, drives, motors, power
   supplies, relays, and other control devices.
   
4. Design and create electrical
   drawings, wiring diagrams, control panel layouts, and schematics using CAD
   systems like AutoCAD Electrical.
   
5. Incorporate safety circuits
   and fail-safe mechanisms to meet industry safety standards and
   regulations.
   
6. Apply Design for
   Manufacturing (DFM) principles to ensure ease of assembly, maintenance,
   and future upgrades of panel designs.
   
7. Prepare and manage Bills of
   Materials (BOM), specifying part numbers, quantities, and supplier
   information.
   
8. Ensure compliance with
   client engineering standards, guidelines, and design principles during
   execution.
   
9. Deliver comprehensive design
   documentation, including native CAD files, wiring diagrams, panel layouts,
   and BOMs.
   
10. Create and implement warning
    symbols/labels for hazardous equipment.
    
11. Perform system short circuit
    analysis, protection coordination, and fuse coordination as per client
    requirements and standards.
    
12. Design earthing layouts and
    prepare BOMs for electrical equipment per IEC standards or client
    specifications.
    
13. Develop customer packaging
    drawings, including network topology, equipment layouts, auxiliary power
    connections, and cable schedules.
    
14. Execute projects using
    AutoCAD Electrical and upload deliverables to Windchill PLM systems.
    
15. Develop and program PLC,
    HMI, and SCADA systems, ensuring proper integration with the overall
    electrical design.
    
16. Troubleshoot and optimize
    control systems to meet operational and safety requirements.
