## Description

As an Operations Electrician, you will keep in-service substations, distribution, and campus power facilities running. This is an operating-plant job: inspect, maintain, switch, and restore equipment so load stays up.

Responsibilities:

- Operate, inspect, maintain, and repair in-service substation and campus electrical equipment, including breakers, transformers, switches, relays, buswork, control systems, and station batteries.

- Perform medium-voltage switching and operations up to 161 kV: write or follow switching orders, isolate and de-energize equipment, apply grounds, verify zero energy, and restore equipment to service.

- Own routine maintenance on medium- and high-voltage operating systems: inspections, lubrication, oil levels, heaters, lights, and connections.

- Respond to outages, faults, alarms, and call-outs; restore service and document what happened.

- Conduct electrical testing on in-service equipment (voltmeters, ohmmeters, ammeters, insulation megger) and assist with relay, transformer, and circuit breaker tests.

- Read and interpret one-lines, schematics, wiring diagrams, and switching orders.

- Troubleshoot electrical, mechanical, and control issues on running plant.

- Follow lockout/tagout (LOTO), grounding, clearance procedures, and PPE requirements.

- Coordinate switching and clearances with operators, engineers, and utility crews during planned and emergency outages.

- Document work performed, test results, and observations; keep operating records current.

- Operate company vehicles and specialized equipment; inspect and store personal protective equipment (PPE).

- Perform similar or less skilled incidental duties as assigned.

Basic Qualifications:

- High school diploma or equivalency certificate.

- 3+ years of experience working as a licensed electrician.

- Medium-voltage electrical experience, including switching and operations.

Preferred Skills and Experience:

- Associate degree in electrical, mechanical, or industrial maintenance technology.

- Journeyman or master electrician license.

- Switching and operations experience on systems up to 161 kV (substation, industrial, or utility).

- Experience with medium-voltage switchgear, transformers, and distribution in substations, industrial plants, or data centers.

- Basic understanding of electrical principles (AC/DC circuits, safety standards).

- Ability to read prints/drawings and use common test tools.

- Proficiency with hand/power tools and physical tasks (lifting 50+ lbs, working at heights/confined spaces, outdoors in all weather).

- Strong safety focus, attention to detail, and ability to work independently or in teams.

- Knowledge of print reading for drawings, manuals, and one-lines.
