Plan electrical installations with a low voltage demand up to 400 A per phase

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to plan electrical installation with a low voltage (LV) demand up to 400 ampere (A) per phase.

It includes planning, arranging and identifying resources for an electrical installation. It also includes arrangement of circuits; metering and control; cable route planning; specifying type and rating of switchgear, control gear, protection devices and wiring based on calculated and deemed-to-comply solutions and planning documentation.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)


Evidence Required

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.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions on at least one occasion and include:

arranging electrical installations to comply with control, metering, safety and other regulatory and functional requirements

specifying appropriate type and size of cables

specifying protection methods and devices that meet coordination requirements for overload and short circuit protection

specifying switchgear and control gear that meet fault level, current, voltage and ingress protection (IP) ratings and functional requirements

selecting appropriate earthing system components

documenting installation plan, specifications of equipment, equipment locations, cable routes and schedules and supporting calculations

arranging electrical installations to comply with control, metering, safety and other regulatory and functional requirements

applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including using risk control measures

applying sustainable energy practices

following workplace procedures

identifying cable protection and switchgear, including:

identifying protection methods and devices

identifying switchgear and control gear

planning electrical installations, including applying job specifications.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions and include knowledge of:

low voltage (LV) electrical installations with demand of up to 400 ampere (A) per phase, including:

electrical metering arrangements encompassing:

purpose, types and applications

metering equipment

arrangements for metering

ingress protection rating

relevant industry standards, including cable protection and switchgear

relevant manufacturer specifications

relevant job safety assessments or risk mitigation processes

relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements

relevant workplace policies and procedures.

Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in suitable workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated suitable workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment must include access to:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, facilities, equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) currently used in industry

applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, relevant industry standards, codes of practice and operation manuals.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Non-essential conditions may be found in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide.
