In a mission-critical power interruption dispute, the side that proves the primary root cause first often determines the outcome. If you need an electrical engineering expert who can connect documented evidence, control system behavior and configuration, and operating context into clear, defensible technical findings that support case evaluation. Since 2007, I have supported pre-litigation investigations by reviewing reports, inspecting failed facilities and systems, and producing factual, evidence-based conclusions on failure mechanisms and primary root causes. My background includes U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Navy Damage Control and Shipboard firefighting training, 13.5 years working for manufacturers, and OEM and distributor certifications across major generator, engine, control, switchgear, UPS, fuel, and emissions systems, including Caterpillar, Cummins, Generac, Kohler, Detroit Diesel, MTU, Basler, Clarke, and Woodward DSLC and MSLC. I also bring over 35 years of fieldwork inte...
