ABOUT THE COURSE

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS COURSE

This Electrical Testing Refresher course (UEEEL0039) is intended for students pursuing theoretical and practical training to prepare for the Capstone assessment.

Or

It can be used for professional development by electricians to refresh their skills and knowledge to match current industry standards on competencies that they have already gained.

Electricians looking to enhance their knowledge of the current Australian Standards and Requirements for licensing.

COURSE OVERVIEW

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to design, install, inspect and test to verify an electrical installation is safe and complies with regulatory requirements.

It includes working safely; designing, installing, commissioning and fault finding of electrical installations; visual inspections and mandatory testing; following workplace procedures; and completing mandatory reporting requirements.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on electrical installations which are designed to operate at voltages greater than 50 volt (V) alternating current (a.c.) or 120 V direct current (d.c.).

Competency development activities in this unit are subject to regulations directly related to licensing. Where a licence or permit to practice is not held, a relevant contract of training, such as an Australian Apprenticeship, may be required.

Additional and/or other conditions may apply in some jurisdictions subject to regulations related to electrical work. Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations.
