Manage reserved legacy or discontinued relays and coordinate bulk orders for planned substation projects.
Hold asset management responsibility for station secondary assets such as controllers and instrument transformers.
Address interdependencies between HV Stations and Protection teams, particularly those relating to protection upgrades affecting HV station control rooms, battery sizing, and switchgear technology selection.
