BRIAN N. ZATTONI
Objective: To obtain a job requiring an experienced journeyman electrician.
Experience: 2000-2005
I completed a five year apprenticeship training program (NJATC) under the sponsorship of the I.B.E.W. Local Union NO. 351,Vineland, N.J. During that time, I was employed by Palmieri Electric, where I worked mostly in an industrial/commercial environment in Atlantic City, NJ. I had the opportunity to also work on smaller residential jobs some of the time. My job consisted of being involved with upgrading existing and new casino electrical rooms, fire alarm systems, motor control, switch gear rooms, camera/security, conduit bending and installation, wire pulling, services, and hotel room renovations.
2006-2008 Palmieri Electric
As a journeyman electrician, I had the opportunity to do class 1 div 1 work at gas stations, extensive conduit work at Atlantic City Airport, and run work as a foreman in control of twenty men at Caesars Hotel and Casino to finish out my time working for this contractor.
2010-2012 Petrocelli Electric
I began work for Petrocelli in Marlton, NJ at the Virtua Health Data Center. My job responsibilities consisted of laying out the main electrical room and data room. The job required conduit work, multiple electrical panels, transformer installation, Lutron lighting control systems, and finally, the back bone hub for all data wiring. I had the opportunity to work at the FAA Military base on the grounds of the Atlantic City Airport. We were part of the construction of a completely new training facility being constructed on the premises. My job responsibilities consisted of underground high voltage splicing, pipe work, wiring security systems and fire alarm. I finished out my last 13 months working at the IDEC project, which was a turbine power plant that was to provide the power to the Revel Casino in Atlantic City. The job was a 24kv project that was then broken down into smaller incremental voltages to support standby generators, battery back- up systems, emergency power distribution, and normal power. My job responsibilities consisted of high voltage splicing in confined spaces, working with 5" rigid conduit, setting switch gear, terminating wires in a relay room, motor control for water treatment, power factor correction for said motor control, wiring of control valves, wiring of command and control center. I must add that I worked at a solar field for a few months installing panels on the arrays and grounding the arrays.
2012-2014 EII, Inc.
In December of 2012, I began working at the largest 230kv switch yard project in Pennsauken, New Jersey, which was under the supervision of PSE&G. I had been trained in sub- station awareness, electrical power generation, globally harmonized systems, aerial work platforms, rigging and signaling, and OSHA 30. We were the only place in the United States where electricians were allowed to work in the complete construction of this switch yard. I became a certified boom truck operator for this job to aid in the rigging and setting of steel structures throughout the project. This job was the most demanding job that I had worked at to date. Safety was paramount due to the heavy nature of job materials and proximity to live distribution equipment. My job requirements involved the ability to properly signal cranes, building and tuning 230kv switches, 13kv breakers, wiring relays in master control room, under -ground high voltage race ways, aerial platform operation, and building A-frame structures for incoming utility power distribution.
2014-2016 Elko
In September of 2014, I began working for RAM Enterprise as a crew leader/foreman. This was my first introduction to the mining industry. I worked on various projects at Newmont and on Barrick properties. August of 2015 to August of 2016, I was employed by Intermountain Electrical Contractors. My duties consisted of overseeing the completion of jobs and ordering materials. We worked at various mine sites, as well as residential and commercial areas in the town of Elko, NV.
2017-2021 Nevada Gold Mines, Carlin
I am currently working at Mill 6 as a journeyman electrician. My job duties are trouble shooting electrical systems, motor control, and maintaining our plant. We often have projects that entail conduit bending ad installing new electrical systems according to the National Electrical Code. I am still a dues paying member to the I.B.E.W. Local 351.
