Core Skills

  • Fault diagnosis using built-in test equipment
  • Trouble analysis using diagnostic computer programs
  • Radar alignment with specialized test equipment

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

Radar trouble analysis, test-equipment use, and restoration to operating condition transfer directly to diagnosing and repairing industrial electronic equipment.

How to prepare: Practice a fault-diagnosis and repair-verification exercise on industrial electronic equipment, documenting the measurements and corrective action in a maintenance log.

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

Telecommunications Equipment Installers and Repairers, Except Line Installers

Using general and special-purpose test equipment to diagnose radar faults provides a foundation for isolating telecommunications equipment malfunctions and verifying repairs.

How to prepare: Complete a hands-on telecommunications equipment lab covering circuit-diagram interpretation, fault isolation, and post-repair testing.

What the civilian work involves
  • Test circuits and components of malfunctioning telecommunications equipment to isolate sources of malfunctions, using test meters, circuit diagrams, polarity probes, and other hand tools.
  • Test repaired, newly installed, or updated equipment to ensure that it functions properly and conforms to specifications, using test equipment and observation.
