1. Set up and prepare to work with live fibre
   • Scope work by obtaining project plan from appropriate personnel, and arrange for site access to comply with security arrangements
   • Identify hazards, assess work health and safety (WHS) risks, and implement control measures according to workplace procedures
   • Notify appropriate personnel of identified worksite safety hazards
   • Determine FTTx equipment, components of optical distribution network (ODN) and WDM components, from project plan, for testing and commissioning
   • Obtain required tools, safety equipment and materials to perform tasks safely and efficiently
   • Select and use required personal protective equipment, and make site safe and secure for commissioning work
2. Connect splitter input fibre to feeder cable
   • Identify and avoid disconnection of other services
   • Monitor implementation of control measures and revise as necessary
   • Locate feeder fibre port to be connected
   • Ensure power is turned off at source
   • Connect connectorised splitter input fibres according to manufacturer specifications
   • Arrange for power to be turned back on to newly connected feeder port
3. Perform live WDM commission testing of ODN installation used in FTTx network
   • Locate appropriate test points in ODN from manufacturer instructions for WDM testing
   • Test live wavelengths for WDM tests according to safety precautions
   • Test optical signal strengths for operating wavelengths incoming into optical network termination (ONT) and determine if signal strengths are within range of acceptable power levels
   • Test losses between WDM outputs and individual line multiplexers (LM) for each wavelength, and determine if within maximum and minimum power losses
   • Conduct all manufacturer specified acceptance tests
   • Record and tabulate all test results for commissioning requirements
4. Complete installation process
   • Seal and secure any enclosures and cabinets
   • Remove waste and debris from worksite and dispose of according to environmental requirements
   • Notify appropriate personnel of job completion and obtain sign-off

Specifies different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) areincluded. It is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.
