Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

PPMEPG440 - Troubleshoot and rectify power generation system

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Identify and diagnose causes of faults

  1. Identify faults according to work health and safety (WHS) and environmental procedures, safe working requirements, productivity requirements, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), risks and hazard identification and housekeeping requirements.
  2. Interpret abnormal plant conditions and system alarms to determine type and location of fault.
  3. Identify faults through physical inspections of plant, equipment and processes.
  4. Identify and locate the cause and source of fault and take appropriate actions.
  5. Access and refer to relevant historical data to confirm fault diagnosis.
  6. Communicate diagnosis to relevant personnel as required.
