Key Responsibilities:

• Provide expert technical guidance on earthing, bonding, and stray current mitigation systems for DC Metro Traction installations.
• Review and verify earthing and bonding designs, calculations, drawings, specifications, and technical submissions.
• Review the integration of traction power systems with the overall project earthing and bonding network.
• Develop and review strategies for stray current collection, drainage, monitoring, and mitigation.
• Assess potential stray current paths and recommend appropriate mitigation measures to minimize corrosion and interference with metallic structures and utility systems.
• Review the design and installation of traction return circuits, running rail bonding, cross-bonding, negative return systems, and associated equipment.
• Ensure proper electrical continuity and bonding of metallic structures, equipment, track components, stations, depots, viaducts, tunnels, and other relevant infrastructure.
• Review contractor method statements, Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), technical submissions, and quality documentation related to earthing, bonding, and stray current systems.
• Supervise and provide technical guidance during installation, testing, and commissioning activities.
• Review test procedures and results for earth resistance, bonding continuity, insulation, rail-to-earth voltage, stray current, and related measurements.
• Identify deficiencies, non-conformities, and potential safety or performance risks and recommend corrective actions.
• Coordinate with Traction, Signalling, Telecom, Civil, Track, MEP, and other engineering disciplines to ensure proper system integration.
• Provide technical support for troubleshooting and resolution of earthing, bonding, and stray current-related issues.
• Ensure compliance with applicable IEC, EN, CENELEC, and other relevant international/national standards, as specified by the project.
• Participate in technical reviews, design coordination meetings, inspections, audits, testing, and commissioning activities.
• Review as-built documentation and ensure that final earthing, bonding, and stray current mitigation records accurately reflect the installed systems.
• Provide technical advice to the Project Manager and senior management on earthing, bonding, and stray current-related matters.
