If you thrive on challenge and enjoy thinking of new ways of doing things, then you will find a rewarding career as a Power System Electrician. Power system electricians install, maintain and repair electrical power generation, transmission and distribution systems and equipment. In general, they work in two distinct areas: substations and metering. Power system electricians work both indoors and outdoors. The hazards of working with live electricity are reduced by the use of special equipment and training in safe work practices and procedures. Power system electricians working in power substations must be physically capable of handling heavy switch gear. |
