Key Responsibilities 1. Installation & Wiring * Install new electrical systems, including wiring, distribution boards (consumer units), sockets, switches, and light fittings. * Follow technical drawings, diagrams, and specifications (e.g., from architects or engineers). * Route cables, either internally in conduits/trunking or externally, ensuring protection and support. * Connect power supplies to machinery, control systems, and other equipment in industrial settings. 2. Testing, Inspection & Fault Finding (Crucial Skill) * Perform Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) to assess the safety of existing installations. * Use specialised test equipment (e.g., multimeters, insulation resistance testers, earth fault loop testers) to check for faults, continuity, and safety. * Diagnose and rectify electrical faults efficiently and safely, from a tripping circuit to a major system failure. 3. Maintenance & Repair * Carry out routine maintenance on electrical systems to ensure longevity and safety. * Repair or replace faulty components, such as circuit breakers, fuse boards, and damaged wiring. * Upgrade existing electrical systems to meet current regulations (e.g., upgrading a consumer unit to provide RCD protection)
