About
I provide professional CAD drafting and drawing support for electrical substations and power-system projects.
My specialty is producing clean, accurate CAD drawings from engineering markups, sketches, existing drawings, specifications, and project standards. I can support individual drawings or larger drawing packages.
I work with the full range of software listed in my profile including using CAD or Bluebeam to create floor plans for various purposes at a very low cost.
I offer fixed-price, per-drawing support whenever the scope is clearly defined. This provides a clear deliverable and cost before work begins.
Send the drawings, markups, project standards, and requirements, then I'll send back a scope review and fixed-price quote.
Example Deliverables:
• Substation One-Line / Single-Line Diagrams
• Substation Layouts
• Equipment Assembly Drawings
• Foundation Plans
• Electrical Plan Views
• Grounding Plans
• Raceway / Conduit Plans
• Cable Schedules
• Bills of Material
• Drawing Lists & Cover Sheets
• Manufacturer Drawing Integration
• As-Built Drawing Updates
• Existing Drawing Revisions
• PDF to CAD
• Bluebeam Revu Drawing Creation & Edits
