Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Undertake condition monitoring
   • Principles and methods of equipment condition monitoring are understood and applied
   • Appropriate condition monitoring technique is selected to achieve required outcomes.
   • Checks are undertaken correctly, safely and to standard operating procedures.
   • Results are plotted and deviations from specification are reported to appropriate authority and recorded.

Required Skills

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in reading interpreting and following information on job instructions specifications standard operating procedures charts lists drawings and other applicable reference documents planning and sequencing operations checking and clarifying taskrelated information applying correct principles for monitoring selecting appropriate technique for the situation following standard operating procedures recording results and preparing and submitting deviation reports

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of the application of principles and methods for a variety of situations appropriate records for a variety of situations hazards and control measures associated with equipment monitoring including housekeeping use and application of personal protective equipment safe work practices and procedures

Evidence Required

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package
Overview of assessment	A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to perform equipment condition monitoring and recording Competency in this unit cannot be claimed until all prerequisites have been satisfied
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently perform all elements of the unit as specified by the criteria including required knowledge and be capable of applying the competency in new and different situations and contexts
Context of and specific resources for assessment	This unit may be assessed on the job off the job or a combination of both Where assessment occurs off the job ie the candidate is not in productive work an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects realistic workplace situations The competencies covered by this unit would be demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate This unit could be assessed in conjunction with any other units addressing the safety quality communication materials handling recording and reporting associated with equipment condition monitoring and recording or other units requiring the exercise of the skills and knowledge covered by this unit
Method of assessment	Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid sufficient current and authentic Evidence can be gathered through a variety of ways including direct observation supervisors reports project work samples and questioning Questioning techniques should not require language literacy and numeracy skills beyond those required in this unit of competency The candidate must have access to all tools equipment materials and documentation required The candidate must be permitted to refer to any relevant workplace procedures product and manufacturing specifications codes standards manuals and reference materials

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.
Technique may include	Built-in systems (software and site displays), vibration monitors, infra-red and ultraviolet non-destructive testing
