Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to solve electrotechnical engineering problems.It includes working safely, applying problem-solving techniques, using a range of mathematical processes and techniques to provide solutions to electrotechnical problems, and documenting solutions.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.

Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in suitable workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated suitable workplace operational situations that replicate 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 must include access to:

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

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, facilities and equipment currently used in industry

resources that reflect current industry practices in relation to applying calculations required to solve electrotechnical problems

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

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Provide calculated solutions to electrotechnical engineering problems
  • Work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements and workplace procedures for a given work area are obtained and applied
       
Element: Scope of the problems are obtained from documentation and/or from work supervisor to determine work to be undertaken
       
Element: Problems are stated in writing and/or diagrammatic form to ensure they are identified, and relevant methods used to resolve them
       
Element: Constants and variables related to the problem are obtained from measured values and/or problem documentation
       
Element: Alternative methods for resolving the problem are considered and, as required, discussed with relevant person/s
       
Element: Problems are solved using relevant mathematical processes and techniques within relevant industry standards
       
Element: Complete work and document calculated solutions to electrotechnical activities
  • Justification for solutions used to solve electrotechnical engineering problems is documented in work/project development records in accordance with relevant industry standards
       
Element: Work completion is documented and relevant person/s notified
       


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.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least two separate occasions and include:

completing work and documenting calculated solutions to electrotechnical activities

documenting justification of solutions provided in accordance with relevant industry standards

obtaining known constants and variables from relevant sources

obtaining scope of problem from documentation and/or work supervisor

providing calculated solutions to electrotechnical engineering problems

solving problems using relevant calculations

stating problems in written and/or diagrammatic form.

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.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Non-essential conditions may be found in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide.

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.
