This role supports the safe and productive operation of large mobile mining equipment, fixed processing and material handling infrastructure, and site buildings by executing planned and corrective electrical maintenance with skill, discipline, and strict adherence to safety standards.

The Electrician works across rolling stock, processing equipment, and facility systems including shovels, haul trucks, and auxiliary vehicles; crushers, screeners, conveyors, tipples, and stackers; and site buildings and electrical distribution infrastructure. This role requires both mobile equipment electrical expertise and the ability to work safely on fixed plant high-voltage systems.

This role is a field-based position operating in an active surface mining environment and requires full compliance with MSHA regulations, site safety programs, and Turner Mining Group’s standards of operational excellence.

  • Perform pre-operational electrical inspections and support scheduled PM work on rolling stock per OEM and site maintenance schedules.
  • Coordinate with OEM field service teams and technical support on complex electrical repairs requiring specialized tooling or engineering input.
  • Respond to mobile equipment electrical breakdowns during active operations with urgency, minimizing downtime impact to production.

Fixed Plant & Processing Infrastructure

  • Maintain and repair electrical systems on material processing and handling equipment including crushers, screeners, conveyors, tipples, and stackers.
  • Service variable frequency drives (VFDs), motor control centers (MCCs), soft starters, control panels, and instrumentation on fixed processing equipment.
  • Perform and document planned electrical PM work on fixed plant equipment per site maintenance schedules.
  • Execute high-voltage switching operations per approved switch orders and procedures, including work on medium-voltage distribution systems (480V–4160V).
  • Support commissioning, decommissioning, and relocation of electrical equipment as site operations evolve.

Facilities & Power Distribution

  • Perform wiring, conduit installation, panel builds, and motor terminations on site buildings in compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC/NFPA 70) and applicable Idaho state codes.
  • Maintain site power distribution infrastructure including substations, switchgear, transformers, overhead and underground distribution lines, and site lighting.
  • Inspect, test, and maintain facility electrical systems including HVAC electrical components, pumps, lighting circuits, and emergency power systems.
  • Support permit applications and inspections for new electrical construction as required by Idaho Division of Building Safety (IDBS) regulations.

Safety & Regulatory Compliance

  • Perform all electrical work in full compliance with MSHA regulations (30 CFR Part 56/57), applicable NEC standards, and Idaho state electrical codes.
  • Execute lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures on all equipment prior to maintenance activity, without exception.
  • Participate in pre-task planning, job hazard analyses (JHAs), and safety briefings for all electrical work assignments.
  • Select and maintain appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for electrical work including arc flash-rated PPE, voltage-rated gloves, and insulated hand tools per NFPA 70E requirements.

Documentation & Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Maintain accurate and timely maintenance records in the site’s computerized maintenance management system (CMMS), documenting all work performed, parts used, and fault findings.
  • Coordinate with equipment operators, mechanics, and the Site Equipment Superintendent on daily work scheduling, breakdown prioritization, and parts procurement.
  • Provide technical input to reliability and planning teams on component life cycles, recurring failure modes, and recommended maintenance interval adjustments.

Documentation & Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Other tasks as required.
