This series includes positions that involve supervision or performance of work that requires
primarily an intensive, practical knowledge of equipment and its characteristics, properties, and
uses in order to (1) collect, analyze, interpret, and provide specialized information about
equipment together with related advice to those who design, test, produce, procure, supply,
operate, repair, or dispose of equipment; (2) identify and recommend practical solutions to
engineering design and manufacturing defects and recommend use of substitute testing or support
equipment when the equipment requested is unavailable; or (3) develop, install, inspect, or revise
equipment maintenance programs and techniques.
Equipment Specialist GLOSSARY OF TERMS ITEM - A word used to indicate a piece of equipment where distinguishing between a part, subassembly, etc., is not important to the context; PART - A unit consisting of one or two items of equipment usually not capable of being disassembled without destruction; SUBASSEMBLY - A unit consisting of two or more parts that form a portion of an assembly or component. It is replaceable as a whole and may have parts that are individually replaceable; ASSEMBLY - A unit consisting of several parts and subassemblies joined to perform a specific function; e.g., an electric switch unique to a submarine; COMPONENT - A unit consisting of a combination of parts, subassemblies, and assemblies mounted together that is normally capable of action in a number of situations, e.g., a complete unit such as a pump, motor, governor, or turbine; SUBSYSTEM - A unit consisting of a combination of parts, subassemblies, assemblies, and components connected to perform an operational function, e.g., an airframe, a complete propulsion unit of an aircraft, a motor vehicle drive train, a guidance or propulsion unit of a spacecraft, or a ground support radar system; SYSTEM - A unit consisting of a combination of parts, subassemblies, assemblies, components, and subsystems associated together to form a complete aircraft, missile, machine, motor vehicle, or weapon; COMMODITY CLASS - Items of equipment grouped together for inventory identification because they have similar characteristics, e.g., a group of hydraulic pumps and motors, or a ________ supply class or group of items. The equipment specialist occupation includes a wide range of work and work settings. The primary distinguishing features are that the nature of the work requires application of an intensive, practical knowledge of equipment and its characteristics, properties, and uses; and that this knowledge is more important in the recruitment and selection process and in performance of the work than other required qualifications.
