Qualification -
Unit of Competency AURETH3001 - Depower battery electric vehicles
Description This unit describes the performance outcomes required to depower battery electric vehicles (BEVs). It involves ensuring the vehicle high voltage (HV) supply system is isolated prior to commencing service and repair work.Importance is placed on the application of HV and low voltage (LV) electrical safety procedures.Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements may apply to this unit in some jurisdictions. Users are advised to check with the relevant regulatory authority.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application Work applies to the service and repair of HV BEVs in the automotive industry.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.
Prerequisites/co-requisites Not applicable.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Prepare for work
  • Procedures and information are sourced and work requirements are confirmed
  • Service method appropriate for the specific circumstances is selected and prepared for
       
Element: Deactivate power control
  • Workplace health and safety (WHS) requirements and other relevant information for deactivation are identified
  • Procedure to deactivate vehicle at main control is followed to commence depowering process
       
Element: Isolate vehicle power supply
  • HV power supply connection is located and isolated according to manufacturer instructions, taking appropriate precautions to prevent electric shock to self and others
  • LV power supply is located and disconnected according to manufacturer instructions and vehicle and workplace safety procedures
  • Vehicle is stabilised and checked for residual voltage in system
  • HV power supply connection is secured and retained to prevent re-fit by third party
  • HV power supply is identified with warning tag or sign to indicate potential hazards
       


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.

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

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to workplace operations and satisfy all of the requirements of the performance criteria and required skills and knowledge.

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to:

comply with WHS requirements and safe work practices

safely deactivate the vehicle and isolate HV and LV power supply

ensure the vehicle is depowered, stabilised and no residual HV power exists.

Context of, and specific resources for assessment

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated workplace environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment is to occur:

using standard workplace practices and procedures

following safety requirements

applying environmental constraints

Assessment is to comply with relevant:

regulatory requirements

Australian standards

industry codes of practice

Competency is to be assessed using a BEV that uses HV and LV alternating and direct current (AC/DC) electrical systems. Where simulation is used, an operational BEV must be included in the simulation.

The following resources must be made available for the assessment of this unit:

appropriate PPE

a BEV

manufacturer specifications for the BEV

testing equipment

full range of essential tools and equipment

workplace documentation.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of this Training Package.

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with the application of required skills and knowledge.

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on required skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other units which together form part of a holistic work role.

Where applicable, reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate the needs of diverse clients.

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally sensitive and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

Submission Requirements

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.

Required skills

technical skills to use workplace technology and tools to:

deactivate BEVs

locate and disconnect LV power supply in BEVs

locate, isolate and stabilise HV power supply in BEVs

communication skills to:

communicate effectively regarding work requirements with supervisor, other workers and customers

confirm work requirements and specifications

literacy skills to interpret technical information and specifications

self-management skills to:

manage risks and hazards associated with HV, BEV electrical systems

manage workflow and productivity

Required knowledge

WHS requirements, including:

safe work practices

electrical safety relevant to BEVs

general principles of operation of HV and LV electrical systems relevant to BEVs

applicable commonwealth, state or territory legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to working on BEVs

workplace policies procedures including quality, reporting and recording procedures relevant to working on BEVs

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 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.

Procedures and information may include:

Australian standards

diagrams and sketches

engineer and manufacturer design specifications and instructions

industry codes of practice

manufacturer specifications

material safety data sheets (MSDS)

parts catalogues

verbal, written and graphical instructions issued by authorised internal and external persons

workplace recording and reporting procedures

workplace specifications and requirements

workshop manuals.

WHS requirements may include:

eliminating of hazardous materials and substances

first aid equipment

following emergency procedures

hazard and risk control

personal protective equipment (PPE), such as:

electrical safety gloves 1000V

HV insulating mats (Australian standards rated)

safety equipment

techniques for manual handling, including shifting, lifting and carrying.

Appropriate precautionsmay include:

analysing task to define risk

applying electrical safety precautions, such as:

“one hand rule”

live system warning tags and signs

depowering the vehicle

following identified OHS requirements

isolating the HV battery electrical supply

stabilising the electrical system.

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.
