Electrical Installation Engineer (AV Projects)

Red King Resourcing

Job Description: Electrical Installation Engineer (AV Projects)Job Summary

We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Electrical Installation Engineer specializing in Audio-Visual (AV) Projects to join our dynamic engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for the hands-on installation, integration, testing, and commissioning of electrical and AV infrastructure across a variety of commercial, corporate, and residential projects.

You will bridge the gap between traditional electrical engineering and advanced AV technology, ensuring that power systems, structured cabling, and high-end AV equipment interface seamlessly and safely.

Key Responsibilities1. Installation & Integration
  • Install, terminate, and test low-voltage and mains power cabling, containment systems (conduit, trunking, tray work), and AV-specific infrastructure.

  • Integrate and mount AV hardware including large-format displays, LED video walls, projectors, smart boards, speakers, microphones, and rack-built systems.

  • Solder, crimp, and terminate various connector types (RJ45, BNC, XLR, phoenix blocks, and custom power connectors).

2. Testing & Commissioning
  • Perform electrical continuity, insulation resistance, and earth fault testing in compliance with local electrical codes.

  • Assist AV programmers and commissioning engineers in powering up systems, loading configurations, and troubleshooting signal flow issues.

  • Conduct systematic testing of audio, video, and control signals to ensure peak system performance.

3. Engineering & Compliance
  • Interpret and work accurately from electrical schematics, line diagrams, architectural blueprints, and AV system CAD drawings.

  • Ensure all electrical work strictly adheres to national and local electrical safety standards and building regulations.

  • Maintain meticulous "as-built" documentation, testing logs, and sign-off sheets for handed-over systems.

4. Collaboration & Site Management
  • Coordinate effectively with project managers, AV designers, main contractors, and IT personnel on-site.

  • Maintain a clean, safe, and organized working environment, adhering to all company and site-specific Health & Safety guidelines.

Technical Skills & QualificationsRequired:
  • Certification: Fully qualified electrician or electrical engineer (e.g., NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installation, 18th Edition/local equivalent wiring regulations).

  • Experience: Minimum of 2-4 years of experience in electrical installation, with a proven track record specifically within the AV, broadcast, or smart automation industries.

  • Cabling Expertise: Deep understanding of copper and fiber structured cabling, signal separation rules (preventing EMI between power and data), and rack building.

  • Flexibility: Willingness to travel to various project sites and occasionally work flexible hours to meet strict project deadlines.
