Elements and Performance Criteria

Performance Evidence

Evidence of ability to:

capture customer functional needs for wiring system

apply industry standards, regulations and codes of practice when designing a wiring system for a customer

develop a detailed design in compliance with industry practices, including signal losses and/or expected measurements to be achieved at wall plates

document the design, including a bill of materials, schedule of work and associated costs and submit to customer.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

determine carrier network delivery systems used in single dwelling and multi-dwelling units for:

twisted copper pair

subscription TV

evaluate cabling requirements of home technology applications taking into account:

the user needs including age and assisted living conditions

digital home health

energy management

intelligent light and power

security and safety

identify and describe testing and commissioning methods and determine performance requirements for home technologies

describe customer interface elements commonly considered when designing a wiring system

identify common service providers clients may specify
