OR
B. Combination of education and experience -- college-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following:

1. Professional registration or licensure -- Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions.
2. Written Test -- Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination or any other written test required for professional registration by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico.
3. Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A.
4. Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. (The above examples of related curricula are not all inclusive.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
Applicants who meet the following experience requirement in addition to the Basic Requirements listed above may qualify for this GS-12 level position-

• 1 year of specialized experience equivalent to at least the GS-11 grade level performing electrical engineering for power systems including the development of standards and substation design, including commissioning of substation equipment, such as transformers, breakers, and disconnect switches; utilizing extensive knowledge of on-site facilities to troubleshoot and work with crews to provide expeditious assistance and solutions to emergency situations or short-term design needs often in areas where there are inadequate or unavailable precedents. Work experience must include experience in electric utility substation and design, voltages up to 115kV, understanding of electrical schematics and ability to create them; experience in troubleshooting substation, transmission, and distribution equipment.

Note: There is no allowable substitution of education for this position.
The ideal candidate will possess experience and/or expert-level or advanced-level knowledge of High Voltage Electricity. High Voltage Electricity is 120 V to 230kV. Experience and/or Knowledge includes: Use of, or expert-level and/or high-level knowledge of Electrical Utility Systems and electrical substation experience. Experience and/or high-level knowledge uses and how and when to use, and how to use safely. Application of high voltage electricity includes commissioning of substation equipment, such as transformers, breakers, disconnect switches, and other applications.
Merit Promotion candidates must also meet time-in-grade requirements by the date of application.Education:If you are qualifying based on your education, you MUST provide transcripts or other documentation to support your educational claims.
