Unit of Competency TLIB4082 - Set up motive power units in multi-coupled consist
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to set up one or more motive power units in multicoupled consist in accordance with network owner and rail industry standards, rules, codes of practice and guidelines.It includes preparing, setting up and conducting post startup checks of motive power units in power or when being hauled dead or offline for multiconsist operation.These operations are conducted as part of operating motive power units and may be carried out as part of a team of people working within rail operations.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations or, where this is not available, in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate rail corridor workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
