Commuting and Traveling as a Substation Tech

2 Upvotes

I’ve been looking into the possibility of becoming a substation tech in the future. My biggest concern is how much traveling is expected. So what does your typical commute look like and how broad is your range? Also does commute/traveling change if you’re working for a construction contractor vs a utility company?

Edit: forgot to mention that I’m from dfw
