Select and arrange equipment for special LV electrical installations

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to select and arrange electrical equipment into distribution circuits for installations associated with construction and demolition sites, transportable structures and vehicles, including their site supplies, marinas, electromedical treatment areas (patient areas), and shows and carnivals operating up to 1,000 volt (V) alternating current (a.c.) or 1,500 V direct current (d.c.).

It includes arranging the installation for correct functioning and safe connection to supply by the selection of switchgear, control gear, protection devices and wiring based on calculated and deemed-to-comply solutions. It also includes completing electrical installation documentation.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on electrical installations which are designed to operate at voltages greater than 50 V a.c or 120 V d.c.

Competency development activities in this unit are subject to regulations directly related to licensing. Where a licence or permit to practice is not held, a relevant contract of training, such as an Australian Apprenticeship, may be required.

Additional and/or other conditions may apply in some jurisdictions subject to regulations related to electrical work. Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations.

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

arranging special electrical installations to comply with safety, other regulatory and functional requirements, technical industry standards and job specifications

documenting installation arrangements, specifications for items selected and reasons for the selections made

selecting appropriate earthing components that meet multiple earthed neutral (MEN) system requirements in special installations

selecting appropriate type and size of cables that are suitable for the environment requirements and meet current-carrying capacity, voltage-drop and fault-loop impedance requirements

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

selecting switchgear and control gear that meet current, voltage and ingress protection (IP) ratings and functional requirements.

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:

relevant manufacturer specifications

relevant workplace documentation

relevant workplace policies and procedures

technical industry standards, regulations and codes for special electrical installations, including:

scope of relevant industry standards for special installations, including additional industry standard wiring rules requirements

construction and demolition sites

marinas

electromedical treatment areas (patient areas)

shows and carnivals

awareness of high voltage (HV) consumer installations standards.

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 suitable simulated 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 other 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.
