During the summer of 2014, I was an electrical engineering intern for the Burns & McDonnell Transmission and Distribution group dedicated to American Electric Power project work. I created cable schedules, designed and specified materials for cable tray installation, and helped create wiring diagrams for a transmission line panel to establish fiber-optic communication with a remote substation.

Columbus, Oh, Us

I was an electrical engineering intern for the American Electric Power field operations group. I maintained substation control house drawings, assisted in troubleshooting control house electrical issues, and assisted in the cleaning and testing of electromechanical relays.

Columbus, Oh, Us

As an electrical engineering intern, I led two breaker replacement projects: one for a 138kV transmission breaker and another for two 13.8kV distribution-class breakers. For both projects, I helped American Electric Power upgrade from electromechanical relays to microprocessor relays. I created drawings, ordered materials, shadowed a Protection and Control engineer when doing relay settings, and coordinated with field technicians to complete the projects. For the 138kV breaker, I shadowed the Protection and Control Technicians during installation.
