Plan periodic maintenance schedules of remote area power supplies (RAPS)

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to plan periodic maintenance schedules of remote area power supplies (RAPS).

It includes establishing maintenance requirements, developing and implementing maintenance schedule, and evaluating maintenance program.

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 and performance criteria on at least two separate occasions and include:

applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements and workplace procedures and practices, including the use of risk control measures

completing maintenance schedule reporting and record keeping

dealing with unplanned events/situations in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment

developing a plan for periodic maintenance of remote area power supply (RAPS) systems located in different communities, including the following:

items to be check and tested

items to be replaced or repaired

frequency of the periodic maintenance

required materials and equipment

timeframes to conduct maintenance on each RAPS system

travel distance and times to each community

periodic and sample inspection reports

protocols for working in different communities

methods for recording and evaluating maintenance

periodic review and revision of RAPS system maintenance schedule.

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

development and self-management of simple maintenance programs

maintenance scheduling principles, including:

limitation of the role of the RAPS service worker

periodic maintenance planning procedures

development of vehicle booking procedures

development of checklists for replacement equipment

determining items to be checked

determining items to be replaced

development procedures for recording and reporting

scheduling of maintenance at multiple communities

developing checklists for preparation of service, vehicle and tools and equipment

developing processes for sourcing and funding replacement components

plant maintenance planning

relevant RAPS system manufacturer specifications

relevant safe work method statements (SWMS)/job safety assessments or risk mitigation processes

relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements

relevant workplace documentation

relevant workplace policies and procedures

reporting of maintenance work.

techniques to develop and implement RAPS system maintenance schedule.

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 maintenance materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) currently used in industry

resources that reflect current industry practices in relation to developing a plan for periodic maintenance of RAPS systems located in different communities

applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals

maintenance equipment for RAPS system, including:

battery bank

engine driven generator sets

fuel storage

inverter and regulator

photovoltaic (PV) array

wind generators.

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.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.

Observation Checklist

Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice Yes No Comments/feedback
Work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) policies and procedures, skills required and frequency and level of maintenance work are determined in accordance with maintenance routines and workplace procedures 
 
 
 
Maintenance schedules are developed from equipment manufacturer recommendations and in accordance with RAPS system safety and performance requirements 
 
 
Periodic and sample inspection reports are used to determine maintenance quality and the need for revision of maintenance schedule and frequency
