Currently working in Vienna VA at a substation for New River Electrical. I started working here as soon as I graduated the local power line school my local community college offers. As it is a temporary job, safety is the main goal here working around electricity, heavy equipment, and many other potential hazards. As a ground man I try my best to ask questions and get hands on when allowed to so I can acquire more knowledge and more experience on the job.
