What is a Panel Wirer?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Panel wirers are usually employed within the manufacturing industry and help to assemble wiring, switches, cables and other electrical units to deliver functional electronic systems.<\/p>\n

A panel wirer is someone who reads and interprets circuit and wiring diagrams, and implements these electrical requirements in real-life components. Panel wiring is quite a broad term as the specifics of the task can vary considerably, depending on the requirements and resources available. Wiring electrical panels can vary from very small-scale circuits, to large scale machinery and commercial operations.<\/p>\n

Wirers need to be confident understanding, building and wiring various types of engineering systems. This helps them turn technical diagrams and concept drawings into electronic or mechanical systems. Their priority is ensuring the construction of the power components of a device or system are wired correctly so they work effectively, without any issues.<\/p>\n

There are many jobs involved in electrical engineering, and panel wirers are likely to collaborate with other electricians and engineers to deliver a project. The nature of the job will vary depending on the specific job at hand.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Panel Wirer Skills<\/span><\/h3>\n

Panel assembly and wiring often doesn\u2019t require any formal training, but experience and knowledge in panel assembly and wiring is certainly advantageous when working on bigger projects. Some jobs may ask for a certain level of experience or some type of vocational qualification.<\/p>\n

So, what are some of the skills involved in day to day work for a panel wirer?<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Circuit Drawings and Wiring Diagrams<\/strong><\/p>\n

Circuit drawings, or wiring diagrams, are technical drawings used to communicate the construction of circuits and electronic systems.<\/p>\n

Building panels requires being able to understand and interpret these drawings. Experienced wirers may also collaborate on creating these drawings.<\/p>\n

These drawings can be anything from simple 2 step circuit drawings to much more complex systems. Experience reading and understanding these drawings will help mean you\u2019re ready and prepared for any you\u2019ll see on the job.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be able to find common examples on the internet and test yourself whether or not you could assemble the requirements from that drawing.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Technical Skills<\/strong><\/p>\n

On-the-job skills, such as soldering or crimping, are critical for many wiring tasks. This means panel wirers who look to perfect such skills are going to be more valued employees. These kind of skills take practice so getting the opportunity to experience all the necessary skills involved in wiring as much as possible, will ensure you can deliver the best results for the projects you\u2019re working on.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Communication<\/strong><\/p>\n

A strong level of communication skills is often required during panel assembly and wiring. If any issues or problems arise, wirers must be confident in identifying and communicating this with the relevant people.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Trade Skills<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although this often isn\u2019t specified, having trade skills like drilling and cutting means you may have a big advantage during certain tasks.<\/p>\n

Being confident using such tools and equipment also means that if you\u2019re required to use other hand tools on the job, you are likely to adapt much better.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Electrical Knowledge<\/strong><\/p>\n

For career progression, panel wirers should look to acquire more knowledge and understanding around wider electrical components and systems. This will open opportunities to work on bigger projects and take more responsibility on such projects.<\/p>\n

When working with specific machinery or equipment, knowledge of how it works and potential solutions to common problems, will help certain wirers progress much quicker.<\/p>\n

Learning about other shoulder disciplines, such as electrical engineering can also mean wirers better understand what other people on a project are trying to accomplish.<\/p>\n

For more senior jobs, a strong understanding of electrics in general is likely to be required.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Efficiency<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rewiring or amending circuits can sometimes be unavoidable, but panel wirers should look to be as efficient as possible. This means reducing time spent rewiring or reworking components.<\/p>\n

Employers will look for wirers who are careful and productive, so those who make mistakes and don\u2019t take pride in their work may find themselves struggling.<\/p>\n

Ensuring all your work also meets all health and safety standards, as well as complying with company quality control, will mean you can progress much quicker.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
