in the construction field the roll of

electrical engineer is
as follows
1-he has to see the basic design
engineering of the project
2-detail engineering with safety factor in
the design .
3-basic & detail engineering for provision
of earthing pits
of electrical intallation.
4-design for illumination of different area
and lux calculation.
5-cable size calculation cable scheduling

The main role of electrical engineers in

construction
projects is to supervise the electricians
in handling all
the electrical works considering the
safety and quality
requirements. The electrical engineer in
the construction
site also reads and studies the electrical
plans (usually
done by electrical design engineers) and
implement it in
the site and sometimes do necessary
actions whether to
correct or to improve the design. They
coordinate with
other electrical engineers in the
implementation of the
electrical system design and also with
other engineers of
different fields, such as civil and
mechanical engineers,
to make the construction job easier.
