Current service use not established

This code is listed in the directory. Inclusion alone does not confirm current service use.

A Navy Enlisted Classification: a skill designation sailors hold in addition to their rating.

Overview

An uninterruptible power supply maintenance specialist performs preventive and corrective maintenance on solid state static power supply systems. The specialist troubleshoots faults and repairs assemblies, subassemblies, printed circuit assemblies, and other plug in components.

Core Skills

  • Solid-state UPS troubleshooting and fault isolation
  • Printed circuit assembly and plug-in component repair

Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technologists and Technicians

Troubleshooting static UPS systems and repairing assemblies and printed circuit assemblies transfer directly to electronic equipment maintenance and fault diagnosis.

How to prepare: Complete a hands-on electronics diagnostic exercise using schematics and test equipment, documenting the fault, repair, and verification results.

What the civilian work involves
  • Modify, maintain, or repair electronics equipment or systems to ensure proper functioning.
  • Replace defective components or parts, using hand tools and precision instruments.
  • Set up and operate specialized or standard test equipment to diagnose, test, or analyze the performance of electronic components, assemblies, or systems.

Electrical and Electronic Equipment Assemblers

Repair of UPS assemblies, subassemblies, and plug-in components provides relevant experience for correcting defects in electrical and electronic assemblies.

How to prepare: Practice building an electronic assembly from a schematic and work instructions, then checking it against the stated specifications.

What the civilian work involves
  • Read and interpret schematic drawings, diagrams, blueprints, specifications, work orders, or reports to determine materials requirements or assembly instructions.
  • Adjust, repair, or replace electrical or electronic components to correct defects and to ensure conformance to specifications.
  • Position, align, or adjust workpieces or electrical parts to facilitate wiring or assembly.
