Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Prepare to fabricate aircraft electrical looms and harnesses
   • Appropriate materials, tools and equipment are selected and prepared for the particular task in accordance with applicable maintenance documentation, enterprise procedures and under qualified person guidance
   • Assembly or fabrication jigs, where applicable, are aligned to ensure accurate fabrication of components
2. Fabricate aircraft electrical looms and harnesses
   • Components or parts are fabricated in accordance with qualified person guidance, applicable maintenance documentation and enterprise procedures while observing all relevant work health and safety (WHS) requirements
3. Perform routine tests on aircraft electrical looms and harnesses
   • Under qualified person guidance test equipment and/or rigs are used, where applicable, to confirm serviceability of finished components
4. Complete the fabrication process with regard to aircraft electrical looms and harnesses
   • Fabricated components are tagged, sealed and packaged within specified procedures

Range Statement

Performance Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria under the specified conditions of assessment, and must include:

applying relevant WHS practices

using approved fabrication procedures and processes relating to electrical looms, cables, and harnesses

recognising the integrity/security of electrical component crimps, joints and plug/connector pins

fabricating cables, harnesses and looms, including wire marking, to approved industry standards

under qualified person guidance performing testing to assess post-construction serviceability according to enterprise procedures.

The underlying skills inherent in this unit should be transferable into other areas that require similar techniques. It is essential that the general aspects of material specification and selection, measurement and fabrication be related to specific aircraft component applications to the extent necessary to unambiguously understand expert guidance.
