What a typical night looks like

At 11:00 pm, you clock in, review work orders, and head to the plant floor. Youll move between preventive maintenance on production lines and rapid troubleshootingfrom a variable-speed drive that needs reprogramming to a motor control center (MCC) bucket that isnt energizing. By 2 am, youre reading a schematic to isolate a fault in a substation breaker. Before shift change, you document your findings, communicate updates, and join a quick root-cause huddle to lock in a permanent fix. Its hands-on, safety-first, and impact-driven.
