Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Determine the type and extent of explosion hazard
  • Knowledge of the safety principles and objectives of area classification and methods applied to examining the extent to which an explosive hazard may arise
       
Element: Extensive knowledge of gas and vapour characteristics are applied
       
Element: Consideration is given to reducing the extent of explosion hazards by the application of a hierarchy of risk controls
       
Element: The likelihood of an explosive atmosphere occurring, in accordance with the definitions of zones, is established from process and plant layout drawings and specifications, and by consultation with process-operating personnel
       
Element: The parameters of flammable materials and the processes by which they may arise affecting the type and extent of zones are obtained and listed together with the sources from which they came
       
Element: Sources and grades of release of flammable gases or vapours that may occur are established from first principles with reference to process, instrumentation and plant layout drawings and specifications and by consultation with process and engineering design personnel
       
Element: Characteristics of release are assessed with the factors affecting those characteristics including gas mixtures
       
Element: Consideration is given to eliminating or reducing the likelihood of an explosive atmosphere arising in consultation with process, operating and engineering personnel
       
Element: Understanding of ventilation and dispersion aspects and the application of artificial ventilation is applied including estimations/calculations of the ventilation rates to reduce an explosive gas atmosphere in consultation with process and engineering design personnel
       
Element: Establish the area classifications
  • Acceptable methods for establishing the type and extent zones are applied
       
Element: The use of illustrative examples in establishing the type and extent of zones is validated in accordance with the standards and any limitations are documented
       
Element: The types and extent of zones are established from the data collected in the analysis of the area and in consultation with process and engineering specialist personnel
       
Element: Document classification process and delineation of zones
  • The classification process taken, relevant material properties and justification for the classifications given is documented in accordance with provisions of standards
       
Element: Sources of release and zones are shown on plant drawing in accordance with provisions of standards
       
Element: All classification documents are filed for future reference and forwarded to the appropriate personnel for inclusion in the verification dossier
       

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

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.
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.
