Notes & Sources
- U4 (Power Line Distribution) is an Army Additional Skill Identifier (proponent: U.S. Army Engineer School), not a standalone military occupation.
- Authority scope: "Identifies positions requiring Soldiers qualified to install, operate, and maintain power distribution systems." Award requirement: "Must successfully complete the USAF course (Electric Power Line Specialist) at Sheppard Technical Training Center, TX." Restrictions: "For use with MOS 12P only." The identifier alone does not establish a civilian occupation; occupation-specific skills and career guidance depend on the holder's primary MOS and actual duties.
