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 UEG Gas Industry Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide.

types of components and systems must include at least five (5) of the following:

solar powered supply systems

240 Volt power supply systems

insulation, flange insulation kit (FIK’s) and monolithic joints

sacrificial and impressed current anode beds

battery banks — acid and lead acid battery maintenance including sg measurement

transformer rectifiers and central processing units (CPUs)

lighting protection equipment

cathodic protection test points

installation of insulated joint protectors and testing

checks and tests on cathodic protection systems must include at least four (4) of the following:

potential surveys

trad unit commissioning and testing

interference testing

on/off potential surveys

coating defect assessment surveys (direct current voltage gradient (DCVG) method, Pearson technique/method, over pipeline potential method)
