Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to design stand-alone renewable energy (RE) systems and its installation.It includes determining and developing stand-alone RE systems design, following design briefs, documenting design calculations and criteria, and obtaining design approval for stand-alone RE system.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Determine stand-alone RE system
  • 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 Scope of the stand-alone RE system and electrical installation is determined from design brief
  • 1.3 Safety and regulatory requirements to which the electrical installation must comply are identified, obtained and applied
  • 1.4 Design development work is planned to meet scheduled timelines in consultation with relevant person/s involved in the stand-alone RE system installation or associated work
2 Develop stand-alone RE system design
  • 2.1 Stand-alone RE system performance requirements and compliance methods are applied to the design
  • 2.2 Alternative stand-alone RE system designs are considered in accordance with the design brief
  • 2.3 Safety, functionality and budgetary considerations are incorporated in the stand-alone RE design
  • 2.4 Stand-alone RE system design is drafted and checked for compliance with the design brief and regulatory requirements
  • 2.5 Stand-alone RE system design is documented for submission to relevant person/s for acceptance and approval
  • 2.6 Unplanned situations are dealt with safely and effectively in accordance with workplace procedures
3 Obtain design approval for stand-alone RE system
  • 3.1 Stand-alone RE system design is presented for approval and any issues clarified with client representative and/or relevant person/s
  • 3.2 Requests for alterations to the design are negotiated with relevant person/s within the constraints of workplace policies
  • 3.3 Final design is documented and approval obtained from relevant person/s
  • 3.4 Quality of work is monitored in accordance with relevant performance agreement and/or workplace procedures or industry standards
