Phillip Cottingham MEng CEng MIET
I am a chartered engineer with the IET and Director of P & R Power Systems, a specialist consultancy providing high voltage and power systems design, analysis, and technical support. With 30 years of industry experience, I lead on the design, review and commissioning of power systems, infrastructure, and earthing studies ranging from 400V up to 132kV, including complex primary substation projects (currently 1+GW).
My background spans installation, commissioning, and design, with previous roles including Authorised Person (Electrical) on nuclear and generation sites. I bring substantial Quality Assurance and commercial experience managing multimillion pound critical projects across the HV and Power systems sector.
I oversee a wide portfolio of projects and guide a skilled team of power systems engineers, delivering robust, safe, and efficient solutions for clients across healthcare, defense, data centers, energy, and the built environment.
