An electrical engineer is someone who plans, designs and develops new electrical equipment. Electrical engineer also evaluate electrical systems, products, components, and applications by designing and conducting research programs; applying knowledge of electricity and materials.
They solve problems and tests equipment. Electrical Engineers work with all kinds of electric and electronic devices, from the smallest pocket devices, radars, navigation systems, wiring and lighting in buildings and other kinds of electrical systems and also huge power station generators. Electrical engineering deals with electricity, electro-magnetism and electronics.

Monitor a product in use to improve on future design
Identify customer requirements
Design systems and products
Read design specifications and technical drawings
Research suitable solutions and estimate costs and timescales
Make models and prototypes of products using three-dimensional design software
Electrical engineers design, develop and maintain electrical control systems and components to required specifications. Focusing on:
economy
quality
reliability
safety
sustainability
The electrical equipment designed and manufactured are used across many sectors, including:
the building industry and services, including lighting, heating and ventilation
transportation and transport networks
manufacturing and construction
production and distribution of power.
Electrical engineers are involved in projects from the concept and detail of the design, through to implementation, testing and handover. You may also be involved in maintenance programmes.
Most electrical engineers work in multidisciplinary project teams, which are likely to include engineers from other specialist areas as well as architects, marketing and sales staff, manufacturers, technicians and customer service personnel.
