Electrical and Electronics Repairers, Commercial and Industrial Equipment

AN/SYY-1(V) fault isolation, preventive maintenance, and component replacement transfer directly to diagnosing and repairing commercial electronic equipment.

How to prepare: Practice diagnosing an industrial electronic unit from its service documentation and recording the fault, repair, and post-repair test results.

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.
  • Maintain equipment logs that record performance problems, repairs, calibrations, or tests.
  • Set up and test industrial equipment to ensure that it functions properly.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Circuit evaluation software
  • Computerized maintenance management system CMMS

Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technologists and Technicians

Experience using general-purpose and special-purpose electronic test equipment for system checks, alignment, and fault isolation supports electronics technician testing and troubleshooting work.

How to prepare: Build a bench-test work sample that documents an electronic assembly's test setup, measured performance, fault diagnosis, and verification after component replacement.

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.
