Set panels, disconnects, transformers, switchgear, MCCs, motors, VFDs, and lighting so equipment is ready for energization without rework. Read blueprints, one-lines, and schematics; lay out conduit and coordinate with other trades so your work never becomes the critical-path delay. Test, troubleshoot, and repair power and control circuits (including sensors and PLC field devices) to restore equipment and minimize downtime. Verify voltage, phase rotation, and load; confirm every install meets NEC, OSHA, and site
