This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to analyse static and dynamic parameters of electrical equipment.

It includes preparing and analysing static and dynamic parameters. It also includes documenting and reporting the analysis.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

ELEMENTS

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1

Prepare to analyse static and dynamic parameters

1.1

Work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) processes and workplace procedures for a given work area are identified, obtained and applied

1.2

WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures in preparation for the work are followed

1.3

Machine analysis is determined from performance specifications and/or reports and in consultation with relevant person/s

1.4

Activities are planned in accordance with workplace procedures for timelines in consultation with others involved

1.5

Strategies are identified, developed and implemented

2

Analyse parameters

2.1

WHS/OHS risk control work measures and workplace procedures for carrying out the work are followed

2.2

Statics and dynamics are applied to developing analytical solutions to machine parameters

2.3

Parameters, specifications and performance requirements of the machine/s are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures

2.4

Machine parameters are analysed in accordance with workplace procedures

2.5

Unplanned events are responded to in accordance with WHS/OHS requirements and workplace procedures

2.6

Quality of work is monitored in accordance with workplace procedures and/or relevant industry standards

3

Document and report results of the analysis

3.1

Solutions to machine analysis are tested and modified as required in accordance with WHS/OHS requirements and workplace procedures

3.2

Analysis of findings, calculations and assumptions are documented in accordance with workplace procedures

3.3

Analysis is reported to relevant person/s for action

3.4

Justification and instruction for actions are documented in work and/or development records in accordance with relevant industry standards

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:

analysing machine parameters

applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including

using risk control measures

dealing with unplanned events in accordance with problem-solving techniques and workplace procedures

documenting and reporting results of the analysis of static and dynamic parameters of machines

documenting instructions for implementing any actions resulting from the analysis

forming effective strategies for analysing machine performance

obtaining machine parameters, specifications and performance requirements

preparing to analyse static and dynamic parameters of machinery

testing the results of the analysis.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

function of mechanical parts and components

problem-solving techniques

relevant analysis testing methods

relevant development and implementation strategies

relevant industry standards

relevant machine parameters, specifications and performance requirements

relevant manufacturer specifications and operating instructions

relevant job safety assessments or risk mitigation processes

relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements

relevant workplace documentation

relevant workplace quality, instructions, policies and procedures.

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, facilities, tools and equipment currently used in industry

resources that reflect current industry practices in relation to analysing static and dynamic parameters of equipment

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

Foundation skills essential to performance are explicit in the performance criteria of this unit of competency.

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.
