Senior Mechanical Engineer, R+D Department
Sant Esteve Sesrovires
Project leader in SBI Connectors España, S.A.U. (Groupe Sicame). Researching, developing and innovating were tasks carried out to find new connectors and devices of a low, high, extra and ultra voltage connection type from low voltage connections to electric distribution substation (up to 1200kV).In this position, I was working in R+D department, where the management of the project is done and simulating and testing products of the different solutions developed: Pullout test, Temperature Rise test, Short Circuit test, Cycling current test, Corona & RIV test, Corrosion test, Cantilever test, Mechanical deformation,... Another task was to create new connectors and devices for electrical substations, thus, the material selection and the attached documentation at this process.Therefore, we kept contact with installers, electric companies and researchers (universities and laboratories included), basically to understand and solve radio interference problems, electrical, mechanical and induced forces caused by physic phenomenon produced in electrical substation installations.If you are interested, can find us at www.sbiconnect.es.
