List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
Elements | Performance Criteria |
Elements describe the essential outcomes | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Plan to install and test power saving hardware | 1.1 Arrange access to site according to required procedure 1.2 Assess extent of system implementation using feasibility report and organisational guidelines 1.3 Produce report to meet client and organisational requirements 1.4 Liaise with appropriate person to obtain approval for plans with recommendations 1.5 Determine and source power saving hardware components according to agreed plan |
2. Install, test and evaluate power saving hardware | 2.1 Install and configure components according to work health and safety (WHS) and environmental requirements, plan, and manufacturer’s and industry standards 2.2 Resolve identified problems 2.3 Test and enhance system performance to meet organisational requirements |
3. Complete documentation and clean up worksite | 3.1 Produce evaluation report on actual cost and benefits of implementing power saving hardware in organisation 3.2 Provide support manual for client 3.3 Record all test results and records for client 3.4 Restore any changes made to worksite to client’s satisfaction and obtain sign off |
Evidence of the ability to:
determine and meet client requirements for installation and testing of power saving hardware
plan and connect the hardware components according to vendor and technical specifications.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
describe systems diagnostic features
outline business processes
summarise client business domain, business function and organisation
discuss compatibility issues and resolution procedures
describe the process of configuration of internet protocol (IP) networks
identify current industry accepted hardware products
describe the major components of client and business liaison
explain how to document technical specifications
discuss linkage between processes
identify set up and configuration procedures
outline technologies such as:
areas of the hardware relevant to configuration and testing
installation procedures
