What is the responsibility of the Design Signatory?

The role of the Design Signatory primarily revolves around the responsibility for the electrical system design. This includes ensuring that all designs meet the relevant standards, codes, and regulations. The Design Signatory must possess a deep understanding of electrical systems, enabling them to create designs that are both functional and compliant with safety requirements.

This responsibility is crucial because it directly impacts the quality and safety of the completed installations. The Design Signatory must verify that the designs consider factors such as load calculations, equipment specifications, and the overall integration of the electrical system within the larger project.

In contrast, overseeing financial aspects, conducting safety training, or enforcing safety protocols, while important roles in project management and execution, do not align with the specific responsibilities attributed to the Design Signatory. The focus of this role is strictly on the design aspect of electrical installations.
