Panel Quality Assurance (PQA) in P&C Field Services Support

• Verified design, assembly, and wiring of Protection & Control relay panels per company and safety standards.
• Conducted functional testing of relay I/O systems to validate AC/DC control schemes before field installation.
• Identified and resolved panel discrepancies, reducing field rework and improving system reliability.
• Led Distribution Automation (DA) switching cabinet testing and trained team members on procedures, boosting efficiency and consistency.
• Collaborated with field test engineers to develop front-view panel layouts aligned with operational needs.
• Interpreted electrical drawings and schematics to ensure accurate panel labeling and functionality.
• Maintained detailed test documentation and communicated findings to engineering, field crews, and leadership.
• Promoted a safety-first culture through adherence to procedures, human performance practices, and quality-focused operations.

• Proposed a system that can remotely close a cutout fuse located on the top of a power pole.
• Designed and built a remote switching device.
• Electronically controlled fault interrupters with maintenance-free field application that as an insulated device.
• Successfully delivered the project within the time allotted and met all required parameters.

• Collaborated in a team environment to work harmoniously with others to design CMOS Circuits.
• Created CMOS circuits using metal oxide thin-Film Transistors with a low processing temperature for low-cost electronic devices on plastic substrates.
• Documented requirements to support the development and building of prototype circuits.
• Coordinated with engineering team to identify and rectify faults in the circuit boards, reducing product defects.
• Successfully executed testing and delivery of project within designated timeline.
