## About

```text
At Hitachi Energy, I support transformer electromagnetics and electrostatic analysis, with a focus on root-cause studies of dielectric clearances. I’m also developing a transformer lighting impulse tool to study transient behavior in the time and frequency domains.

At Virginia Transformer India Pvt Ltd, I worked on design and development calculations for oil-filled power and distribution transformers. My work included impulse voltage analysis, 2D electric-field analysis, and 3D electromagnetic analysis of leakage fields.

At IMP Powers Ltd, I worked on transformer online monitoring and an IoT-based project, including thermal analysis and remaining life assessment. I also made an automated dissolved gas analysis tool that compared five diagnostic methodologies.

Earlier, at ERDA, I developed an IoT-based thermal loading monitor using an Arduino microprocessor and PT100 sensor. During my M.Tech dissertation internship at Larsen & Toubro, E&A, I developed a prototype design focused on repulsion force and electrical life for a 630 Amp MCCB.
