Project Managing every aspect of generator installations, fuel transfer systems and control panel upgrades throughout the United Kingdom, this included the writing of task specific RAMS, full technical drawings and the production of O&M manuals. My projects included the installation of 2 x 1000 kva mains parelling generators in one of the UK's leading supermarket's distribution centres, 2 x 550 Kva generators and the installation of 4 x Deep sea synchronising control panels fitted to existing KTA50 Cummins generators for a leading investment bank in London and the installation of a new bespoke fuel transfer system for one of London's main banks.

My main duties involved the servicing of a large hire fleet, and attending break downs. I became involved with the event scene and installed generators at many festivals and live events, from 20 kva up to 1000 kva plus.

I started as an assistant carrying out services on the hire fleet, but quickly established myself as a service engineer.
