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.

This field allows for 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) are included.

The large diesel engines covered by this unit are used in one or more of the following:

mobile plant

agriculture

forestry

rail

marine

other transport operations

power generation

air and gas compression

stand by power

other industry sectors using large combustion engines

Engine powered equipment systems include one (1) or more of the following:

hydraulic and pneumatic systems for accessories

mechanical and traction drives

alternators and generators

heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration HVAC/R equipment
