  • Minimum 2–5 years of experience in electrical testing, field service, commissioning, industrial maintenance, electrical construction, utility operations, military electrical systems, or related power systems work.

  • Experience performing testing, inspection, troubleshooting, or maintenance on electrical power equipment.
  • Ability to read and interpret:
    • One-line diagrams

  • Ability to work in industrial facilities, substations, electrical rooms, construction sites, and outdoor environments.
  • Ability to wear required personal protective equipment (PPE), including arc-flash and electrical safety equipment.
  • Ability to work extended hours, weekends, holidays, and emergency callouts when required.

Career Progression

The Test Technician II role serves as an intermediate technical position within the Electrical Power Services career path and may progress to Senior Test Technician, Lead Technician, NETA-Certified Technician, Project Manager, or other advanced technical leadership roles based on performance, experience, and business needs.
