Line Mechanic C-A
for section headings
- Use - for lists
- Use
for prose
- Don't repeat job title as heading
- Don't put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (there's a "Job Posting End Date" but that's metadata)
- Preserve all substantive information
- Remove boilerplate (EEO, scam warnings, application instructions, etc.)
- Only include sections with real content
- No filler/placeholder text
- Output only HTML fragment
Let me parse the content:
Job Summary: "Perform work involved with the installation, rearrangement, maintenance, operation, removal, and inspection of electrical transmission and distribution facilities, drive and operate line trucks and associated auxiliary equipment. All job duties apply to overhead and underground equipment and facilities. The Line Mechanic C builds upon the skills, abilities and knowledge learned as a Line Mechanic D (or equivalent)."
Responsibilities: The "What You'll Do" section has many bullet points. I'll need to list them as
- . They are detailed duties with conditions (after completion of C-100, etc.). I should preserve all.
Requirements: "What We're Looking For" has three sub-sections: Line Mechanic C, Line Mechanic B, Line Mechanic A. Each has Education, Experience, Licenses/Certifications. Also there's a Drive Time Requirement and Physical Demand Level.
Benefits: "What You'll Get" mentions competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package, but no specifics. The rule says never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It says "offers a unique comprehensive benefits package that aims to support and enhance the overall well-being of our employees." That's vague but it's stated. However, the rule says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state benefits package, but no details. I think I should include a Benefits section with that statement.
Pay: Compensation Data with Grade and Range. That's specific.
Schedule: Not mentioned.
Physical Demands: Given as "Physical Demand Level for this job is: H – Heavy Work..." That could be under Requirements or a separate section. Might fit under Requirements or Additional Information.
Also there's a note about job posting end date: "Job Posting End Date 11-03-2026 Please note the job posting will close on the day before the posting end date". That's metadata, should be folded into a short
or dropped. I'll include as a
at top maybe.
Now, structure:
I'll start with a
for the posting end date note.
Then sections:
- Job Summary (h3)
- Responsibilities (h3)
- Qualifications (h3) - but there are three levels. Could make subsections? The rule says use h3 for section headings. Could have "Qualifications" as h3 and then sub-lists for each level. Or separate h3 for each level? The rule says "e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule". So "Qualifications" is a heading. I'll make "Qualifications" as h3 and then list the three levels with subheadings? But we can't use h4? The rule only mentions h3 for section headings. Could use
for each level? That might be too many. Better to have one Qualifications section with sub-lists using and maybe for level names.
Similarly, Responsibilities is a list.
Benefits: one paragraph.
Pay: one paragraph with grade and range.
Physical Demands: could be under Requirements or separate. I'll include under Qualifications or a separate "Physical Requirements" section.
Let's draft.
First, the metadata note: Job posting closes on 11-02-2026 (the day before the posting end date of 11-03-2026).
Then Job Summary: Job Summary
...
Responsibilities: Responsibilities
... each duty as li
Qualifications: Qualifications
then for each level: maybe ? But rule says only h3 for section headings. Could use Line Mechanic C then list. I'll use with nested lists? Simpler: use Line Mechanic C
then for education, experience, licenses. But the rule says use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So I can make a list for each level.
I'll structure Qualifications as:
Qualifications
Line Mechanic C
- Education: High school diploma or GED
- Experience: Minimum of one year distribution electrical power line work experience, OR one year of related line experience defined as: successful completion of a one-year electrical power line school certificate plus a minimum of 16 weeks internship or distribution electrical power line experience, or an Associate degree from an electrical power line school which includes a minimum of 16 weeks internship or distribution electrical power line experience.
- Shall have performed the duties of and have all the qualifications of Line Mechanic D or the equivalent and shall qualify through demonstration, examination and/or performance appraisal as determined by the Company.
- Must have the ability and desire to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to perform the duties and/or responsibilities of the key job (Line Mechanic A) in this family and be qualified through demonstration, examination and/or performance appraisal as determined by the Company.
- Must acquire within such time frame as determined by the Company, the qualifications necessary to perform the duties of the next higher classification in the line of progression or vacate the current job classification.
- A physical abilities assessment is also required for this position.
- Licenses/Certifications: Valid Class A CDL is required
Similarly for Line Mechanic B and A.
But note: The posting lists "Line Mechanic C: Education: ... Experience: ... Licenses/Certifications: ..." then "Line Mechanic B: Education: ... Experience: ... Licenses/Certifications: ..." then "Line Mechanic A: ...". So three distinct sets.
Also there's "Drive Time Requirement: Successful candidate must live or be willing to relocate within 30 miles of the Crooksville Service Center (130 West Main Street Crooksville, Ohio 43731)". That's a requirement.
Physical Demand Level: "The Physical Demand Level for this job is: H – Heavy Work: Exerting 50 to 100 pounds of force occasionally, and/or 25 to 50 pounds of force frequently, and/or greater than negligible up to 10-20 pounds of force constantly to move objects. Physical demand requirements are in excess of those for Medium Work."
I'll include Drive Time and Physical Demands under Qualifications or separate section. Could make a "Additional Requirements" section.
Benefits: Benefits
In addition to competitive compensation, AEP offers a unique comprehensive benefits package that aims to support and enhance the overall well-being of our employees.
Pay: Pay
Compensation Grade: U018-150
Compensation Range: $31.33 - $58.62
Now, remove boilerplate: The EEO statement, "Hear about it first! Get job alerts...", "Log in to your Candidate Home Account...", "It is hereby reaffirmed that it is the policy of American Electric Power (AEP) to provide Equal Employment Opportunity..." all removed.
Also remove "Where Putting the Customer First Powers Everything We Do! At AEP, we’re more than just an energy company..." that's marketing fluff, but it's part of "What You'll Get"? Actually it's after "What You'll Get:" but before "Compensation Data". The posting says "What You'll Get: In addition to a competitive compensation, AEP offers a unique comprehensive benefits package that aims to support and enhance the overall well-being of our employees. Where Putting the Customer First Powers Everything We Do! At AEP, we’re more than just an energy company — we’re a team of dedicated professionals committed to delivering safe, reliable, and innovative energy solutions. Guided by our mission to put the customer first, we strive to exceed expectations by listening, responding, and continuously improving the way we serve our communities. If you're passionate about making a meaningful impact and being part of a forward-thinking organization, this is the company for you!" That's marketing. The rule says remove boilerplate. But it's part of the benefits section? I'll keep the first sentence about benefits package, and maybe drop the rest as marketing fluff. However, the rule says "Preserve ALL substantive information". The marketing fluff is not substantive. I'll keep only the benefits package sentence.
Now, the Responsibilities list: The "What You'll Do" section has many bullet points. I'll convert each line into a list item. They are separated by line breaks. I'll need to parse them.
Let's list them:
1. Assemble, install, maintain, remove and competently inspect overhead, and underground facilities including conductors, cables, transformers, fixtures, structures and other associated equipment under immediate or general supervision as skill level dictates.
2. After completion of C-100, or equivalent experience, shall be competent to perform work on conductors and equipment energized up to 260 volts under general supervision.
3. Assist with work on conductors and equipment energized at secondary voltages to 600 volts under immediate supervision of higher classification.
4. After completion of C100, or equivalent experience, test, de-energize and ground URD cable, Splice and terminate URD cable, and troubleshoot, repair and energize URD cable and equipment under immediate or general supervision as skill level dictates.
5. After completion of C-200, or equivalent experience, shall be capable of working on conductors and equipment energized up to 600 volts under general supervision.
6. Use volt meters, amp meters, ground meggers, continuity testers and other electrical test equipment associated with line work on voltages up to 600 volts.
7. After completion of C-200, or equivalent experience, may cover up stationary tied in (cannot transfer) primary conductors and equipment under direct supervision as skill level dictates.
8. After completion of C-300, or equivalent experience, may cover up, transfer or move primary conductors and equipment under direct supervision as skill level dictates.
9. After completion of C-400, or equivalent experience, perform the same duties as outlined in the B classification during the first TWELVE MONTHS. (Wording from LMB description - During the first twelve months in this classification (LMB) assist with work on energized lines, cables and equipment. During this time frame, the employee should progress from direct supervision to immediate supervision as skill level dictates. Also, shall be capable of replacing fuses and operate switching and
