Overview

A CG-47 Gas Turbine Electrical Maintenance Technician operates gas turbine main propulsion and electric generating plant control systems aboard CG-47 class ships. The technician performs advanced organizational or intermediate maintenance on these control systems down to the component level.

Core Skills

  • Component-level maintenance of gas turbine controls
  • Electric generating plant control system operation

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 Electronics Repairers, Commercial and Industrial Equipment

Component-level maintenance of CG-47 propulsion and generating plant controls transfers directly to industrial electrical and electronic equipment repair.

How to prepare: Take a hands-on industrial electronics troubleshooting course focused on testing faulty components and verifying repaired equipment.

What the civilian work involves
  • Test faulty equipment to diagnose malfunctions, using test equipment or software, and applying knowledge of the functional operation of electronic units and systems.
  • Set up and test industrial equipment to ensure that it functions properly.
  • Inspect components of industrial equipment for accurate assembly and installation or for defects, such as loose connections or frayed wires.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Circuit evaluation software
  • Computerized maintenance management system CMMS

Power Plant Operators

Operating and maintaining gas turbine generating plant control systems provides relevant experience for civilian power generation controls and equipment monitoring.

How to prepare: Complete simulator-based practice in generator output control, equipment monitoring, and startup and shutdown procedures for the type of plant you intend to work in.

What the civilian work involves
  • Control generator output to match the phase, frequency, or voltage of electricity supplied to panels.
  • Control power generating equipment, including boilers, turbines, generators, or reactors, using control boards or semi-automatic equipment.
  • Monitor power plant equipment and indicators to detect evidence of operating problems.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Computerized maintenance management system CMMS
