Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to develop engineering solutions for direct current (d.c.) machine and control problems.It includes working safely; determining problem; obtaining direct current d.c. machine operation, construction and application; gathering and analysing data; applying problem-solving techniques; and developing and documenting solutions.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 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.Permits may also be required for some work environments such as confined spaces, working aloft, near live electrical apparatus and site rehabilitation
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Prepare to develop engineering solution for d.c. machine problems
  • 1.1 WHS/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 Scope of d.c. machine problem is determined from performance specifications and/or documentation and in consultation with relevant person/s
  • 1.4 Activities are planned to meet scheduled timelines in consultation with others involved in the work
  • 1.5 Strategies are formed to ensure solution development and implementation is carried out efficiently
2 Develop engineering solution for d.c. machine problems
  • 2.1 WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures for carrying out the work are followed
  • 2.2 Relevant d.c. machine construction operation characteristics and applications are applied to developing solutions to d.c. machine problems
  • 2.3 Parameters, specifications and performance requirements to each machine problem are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures
  • 2.4 Approaches to resolving d.c. machine problems are analysed to provide most effective solutions
  • 2.5 Unplanned events are dealt with safely in accordance with relevant industry standards and workplace procedures
  • 2.6 Quality of work is monitored in accordance with relevant industry standards and workplace procedures
3 Implement engineering solution and complete documentation
