A Breaker Shop Technician supports a NETA‑accredited electrical testing operation by repairing, refurbishing, and testing low‑, medium‑, and high‑voltage circuit breakers and related power distribution equipment.

• Perform mechanical and electrical refurbishment of LV/MV/HV circuit breakers, including cleaning, part replacement, lubrication, and mechanism adjustments.
• Conduct diagnostic testing—contact resistance, insulation resistance, timing, Hi‑Pot, and primary/secondary injection—and evaluate results against manufacturer tolerances and NETA standards.
• Document all work clearly and accurately for internal QA and customer reporting.
• Maintain a safe, organized shop environment and follow NFPA 70E and company safety procedures.
• Support field teams by preparing breakers and related equipment for deployment.

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Hands‑on mechanical experience
• Ability to read schematics and technical manuals.
• Familiarity with test equipment such as DLROs, Meggers, Dobles, and primary injection sets is valuable.
• Experience in a NETA environment or pursuit of NETA Level 1 or 2 certification is a strong plus.
