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!

Instructions to Assessors

Required Skills and Knowledge

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

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

using risk control measures

checking and isolating process controller/transmitters/converters and control loops

completing status reports and/or notifying work supervisor

dealing with unplanned situations in accordance with workplace procedures

determining sources of materials required for work

determining to test and measure live work

measuring and calculating values for solving process control loop problems

obtaining and checking tools, equipment and testing devices for correct operation and safety

obtaining scope of control problem from documentation and/or from work supervisor

preparing to work on process control loops

solving process control loop problems

solving problems without damage to apparatus, the surrounding environment or services using sustainable energy principles.

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

isolation procedures

problems-solving techniques

process control loop principles, including:

connection of controllers

introduction to control systems, including control loop components, purpose of control loop components, open and closed loop control, control loop block diagram, direct acting and reverse acting controllers

process control terminology

process controllers, including proportional-integral-derivative (PID) functions, applications of PID modes of control, applications of controller options, checking/adjustment of controllers and reset windup

testing of control modes

types of control and control modes

process characteristics

relevant industry standards

relevant manufacturer specifications and operating instructions

tuning and installation of control loops

relevant process controller/transmitters/converters and control loops

job safety assessments or risk mitigation processes

relevant tools, equipment and testing devices

relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements

relevant workplace documentation, including

status reports

relevant workplace instructions, policies and procedures

sustainable energy principles.

Range Statement

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.

Setting up and adjusting problems in PID controllers must include at least two of the following:

determining the operating parameters of a controller in an existing control loop

configuring/tuning a controller in an existing control loop to comply with specified operating parameters

configuring/tuning a controller to comply with a specified function
